These are the GENERIC files; any module may +override them by putting specific replacements in doc/api/ . +This allows modules to customize their appearance as desired. +The files that may be overridden are: + +- doxygen.css Stylesheet. +- mainheader.html Header for front page of dox. This should + not be terribly different from header.html. + It might contain special CSS for the footer. +- mainfooter.html Footer for front page of dox. This should at + least credit Doxygen [1] and point to the dox + guidelines [2]. +- header.html Header file for regular pages. +- footer.html Footer file for regular pages. +- Doxyfile.global The global (brief) Doxyfile. For a long-style + Doxyfile, see KDE PIM's doc/api/Doxyfile.pim. + +The tool for generating dox lives in admin/ : + +- doxygen.sh Script that does all the dox generation work. + See below for usage information. + + +In a configured build directory, you can use "make apidox" to +generate the API dox for the module -- assuming it has any, of course. +Writing dox is beyond the scope of this README -- see the notes at +http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/Library_Documentation_Policy . +You can generate dox by hand -- without even having a configured +build directory -- as explained below. There is also documentation +for the special tags you can enter in Makefile.am anywhere +in a module to modify dox generation. + + + +*** +*** Tool usage. +*** + +Usage: + +doxygen.sh [--recurse] [--modulename] [--doxdatadir=<dir>] [--installdir=<dir>] + <top_srcdir> [<subdir>] + +--recurse Also generate dox in subdirs of the given <subdir>. If no + <subdir> is given, --recurse is the default and can be + turned off with --no-recurse. +--modulename By default, apidox are generated in a subdirectory + <modulename>-apidocs/ . You can use --no-modulename to + suppress the <modulename> and generate the apidox in + a subdirectory apidocs/ . Modulename is the last part of + the <top_srcdir> (usually a KDE SVN module name). +--doxdatadir=<dir> Locate the HTML header files and support graphics. + In kdelibs, the subdirectory doc/common/ contains these + files (and this README). In an installed KDE system, + $KDEDIR/share/doc/HTML/en/common/ contains a copy. + This argument is mandatory if doxygen.sh can't guess where + the doxdata lives. +--installdir=<dir> Locate the directory where apidox from other modules + is installed. Subdirectories named *-apidocs/ under the + named <dir> are searched for tag files, for cross-module + cross-referencing. + + + +How to generate dox manually: <TODO> +Plan to fit these tools into ../Doxyfile.am: <TODO> +Differences with current dox: <TODO> + +# A shell script that builds dox without all the tedious mucking about with +# autoconf and configure. Run it in the "top builddir" with one argument, +# the "top srcdir". Something like this: +# +# cd /mnt/build/kdepim +# sh /mnt/src/kdepim/doc/api/doxygen.sh /mnt/src/kdepim +# +# You can also build single subdirs (for instance, after updating some +# dox and you don't want to rebuild for the enitre module) by giving the +# subdirectory _relative to the top srcdir_ as a second argument: +# +# sh /mnt/src/kdepim/doc/api/doxygen.sh /mnt/src/kdepim kpilot/lib +# +# When generating dox for kdelibs, a tag file for Qt is also created. +# The location of Qt is specified indirectly through $QTDOCDIR or, +# if that is not set, $QTDIR, or otherwise guessed. You may explicitly +# set the location of a pre-generated tag file with $QTDOCTAG. One +# typical approach might be: +# +# QTDOCTAG=$QTDIR/doc/qt.tag QTDOCDIR=http://doc.trolltech.com/3.3/ +# +# Finally, there is a --no-recurse option for top-level generation +# that avoids generating all the subdirectories as well. It also +# suppresses cleaning up (rm -rf) of the dox direction beforehand. +# +# Post-finally, there is a --no-modulename option that builds the +# dox in "apidocs/" instead of "modulename-apidocs". The former is +# compatible with the KDE 3.4 build system, the latter is more convenient +# for the installed dox. + +# +# A shell script to post-process doxy-generated files; the purpose +# is to make the menu on the left in the file match the actually +# generated files (ie. leave out namespaces if there are none). +# +# Usage: doxyndex.sh <toplevel-apidocs-dir> <relative-html-output-directory> +# +# Typically, this means $(top_builddir)/apidocs and something like +# libfoo/html for the output. For the top-level dig, set relative-html +# to "." . In non-top directories, both <!-- menu --> and <!-- gmenu --> +# are calculated and replaced. Top directories get an empty <!-- menu --> +# if any. + |
