Introduction</h1>
<p>All commands in the documentation start with a backslash (<b>\</b>) or an at-sign (<b>@</b>). If you prefer you can replace all commands starting with a backslash below by their counterparts that start with an at-sign.</p>
<p>Some commands have one or more arguments. Each argument has a certain range: </p><ul>
<li>
If <sharp> braces are used the argument is a single word. </li>
<li>
If (round) braces are used the argument extends until the end of the line on which the command was found. </li>
<li>
If {curly} braces are used the argument extends until the next paragraph. Paragraphs are delimited by a blank line or by a section indicator. </li>
</ul>
<p>If in addition to the above argument specifiers [square] brackets are used the argument is optional.</p>
<p>Here is an alphabetically sorted list of all commands with references to their documentation: <a class="anchor" id="showsecreflist"></a></p><div class="multicol">

<p>The following subsections provide a list of all commands that are recognized by doxygen. Unrecognized commands are treated as normal text.</p>
<p> </p><center><p> </p><h2> --- Structural indicators --- </h2>
<p> </p></center><p></p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdaddtogroup"></a>
\addtogroup <name> [(title)]</h1>
<p><a name="a:5caddtogroup"></a> Defines a group just like <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmddefgroup">\defgroup</a>, but in contrast to that command using the same <name> more than once will not result in a warning, but rather one group with a merged documentation and the first title found in any of the commands.</p>
<p>The title is optional, so this command can also be used to add a number of entities to an existing group using <code>@{</code> and <code>@}</code> like this:</p>
<pre class="fragment"> /*! \addtogroup mygrp
* Additional documentation for group 'mygrp'
* @{
*/
/*!
* A function
*/
void func1()
{
}
/*! Another function */
void func2()
{
}
/*! @} */

If the header-file is specified, a link to a verbatim copy of the header will be included in the HTML documentation. The <header-name> argument can be used to overwrite the name of the link that is used in the class documentation to something other than <header-file>. This can be useful if the include name is not located on the default include path (like <X11/X.h>). With the <header-name> argument you can also specify how the include statement should look like, by adding either quotes or sharp brackets around the name. Sharp brackets are used if just the name is given. Note that the last two arguments can also be specified using the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdheaderfile">\headerfile</a> command.</p>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdheaderfile"></a>
\headerfile <header-file> [<header-name>]</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cheaderfile"></a> Intended to be used for class, struct, or union documentation, where the documentation is in front of the definition. The arguments of this command are the same as the second and third argument of <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdclass">\class</a>. The <header-file> name refers to the file that should be included by the application to obtain the definition of the class, struct, or union. The <header-name> argument can be used to overwrite the name of the link that is used in the class documentation to something other than <header-file>. This can be useful if the include name is not located on the default include path (like <X11/X.h>).</p>
<p>With the <header-name> argument you can also specify how the include statement should look like, by adding either double quotes or sharp brackets around the name. By default sharp brackets are used if just the name is given.</p>
<p>If a pair of double quotes is given for either the <header-file> or <header-name> argument, the current file (in which the command was found) will be used but with quotes. So for a comment block with a <code>\headerfile</code> command inside a file <code>test.h</code>, the following three commands are equivalent: </p><pre class="fragment"> \headerfile test.h "test.h"
\headerfile test.h ""
\headerfile "" </pre><p> To get sharp brackets you do not need to specify anything, but if you want to be explicit you could use any of the following: </p><pre class="fragment"> \headerfile test.h <test.h>
\headerfile test.h <>
\headerfile <> </pre><p>To globally reverse the default include representation to local includes you can set <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_force_local_includes">FORCE_LOCAL_INCLUDES</a> to <code>YES</code>.</p>
<p>To disable the include information altogether set <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_show_include_files">SHOW_INCLUDE_FILES</a> to <code>NO</code>.</p>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdbrief"></a>
\brief { brief description }</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cbrief"></a> Starts a paragraph that serves as a brief description. For classes and files the brief description will be used in lists and at the start of the documentation page. For class and file members, the brief description will be placed at the declaration of the member and prepended to the detailed description. A brief description may span several lines (although it is advised to keep it brief!). A brief description ends when a blank line or another sectioning command is encountered. If multiple <code>\brief</code> commands are present they will be joined. See section <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdauthor">\author</a> for an example.</p>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdcond"></a>
\cond [(section-label)]</h1>
<p><a name="a:5ccond"></a> Starts a conditional section that ends with a corresponding <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdendcond">\endcond</a> command, which is typically found in another comment block. The main purpose of this pair of commands is to (conditionally) exclude part of a file from processing (in older version of doxygen this could only be achieved using C preprocessor commands).</p>
<p>The section between <code>\cond</code> and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdendcond">\endcond</a> can be included by adding its section label to the <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_enabled_sections">ENABLED_SECTIONS</a> configuration option. If the section label is omitted, the section will be excluded from processing unconditionally. The section label can be a logical expression build of section labels, round brackets, && (AND), || (OR) and ! (NOT). If you use an expression you need to wrap it in round brackets, i.e <code>\cond (!LABEL1 && LABEL2)</code>.</p>
<p>For conditional sections within a comment block one should use a <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdif">\if</a> ... <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdendif">\endif</a> block.</p>
<p>Conditional sections can be nested. In this case a nested section will only be shown if it and its containing section are included.</p>
<p>Here is an example showing the commands in action:</p>
<pre class="fragment">/** An interface */
class Intf
{
public:
/** A method */
virtual void func() = 0;
/// @cond TEST
/** A method used for testing */

void test();
/// @endcond
/// @cond
/** This method is obsolete and does
* not show up in the documentation.
*/
void obsolete();
/// @endcond
};
/// @endcond
</pre><p>The output will be different depending on whether or not <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_enabled_sections">ENABLED_SECTIONS</a> contains <code>TEST</code>, or <code>DEV</code> </p>

\date { date description }</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cdate"></a> Starts a paragraph where one or more dates may be entered. The paragraph will be indented. The text of the paragraph has no special internal structure. All visual enhancement commands may be used inside the paragraph. Multiple adjacent <code>\date</code> commands will be joined into a single paragraph. Each date description will start on a new line. Alternatively, one <code>\date</code> command may mention several dates. The <code>\date</code> command ends when a blank line or some other sectioning command is encountered. See section <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdauthor">\author</a> for an example.</p>
<hr/>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmddeprecated"></a>

<hr/>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmddetails"></a>
\details { detailed description }</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cdetails"></a> Just like <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdbrief">\brief</a> starts a brief description, <code>\details</code> starts the detailed description. You can also start a new paragraph (blank line) then the <code>\details</code> command is not needed.</p>
<hr/>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdelse"></a>
\else</h1>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdparam"></a>
\param [(dir)] <parameter-name> { parameter description }</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cparam"></a> Starts a parameter description for a function parameter with name <parameter-name>, followed by a description of the parameter. The existence of the parameter is checked and a warning is given if the documentation of this (or any other) parameter is missing or not present in the function declaration or definition.</p>
<p>The <code>\param</code> command has an optional attribute, (dir), specifying the direction of the parameter. Possible values are "[in]", "[in,out]", and "[out]", note the [square] brackets in this description. When a parameter is both input and output, [in,out] is used as attribute. Here is an example for the function <code>memcpy:</code> </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="comment">/*!</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * Copies bytes from a source memory area to a destination memory area,</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * where both areas may not overlap.</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * @param[out] dest The memory area to copy to.</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * @param[in] src The memory area to copy from.</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * @param[in] n The number of bytes to copy</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> */</span></div><div class="line"><span class="keywordtype">void</span> memcpy(<span class="keywordtype">void</span> *dest, <span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="keywordtype">void</span> *src, <span class="keywordtype">size_t</span> n);</div></div><!-- fragment --><p>The parameter description is a paragraph with no special internal structure.

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdxrefitem"></a>
\xrefitem <key> "(heading)" "(list title)" { text }</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cxrefitem"></a> This command is a generalization of commands such as <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdtodo">\todo</a> and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdbug">\bug</a>. It can be used to create user-defined text sections which are automatically cross-referenced between the place of occurrence and a related page, which will be generated. On the related page all sections of the same type will be collected.</p>
<p>The first argument <key> is an identifier uniquely representing the type of the section. The second argument is a quoted string representing the heading of the section under which text passed as the fourth argument is put. The third argument (list title) is used as the title for the related page containing all items with the same key. The keys <code>"todo"</code>, <code>"test"</code>, <code>"bug"</code> and <code>"deprecated"</code> are predefined.</p>
<p>To get an idea on how to use the <code>\xrefitem</code> command and what its effect is, consider the todo list, which (for English output) can be seen an alias for the command </p><pre class="fragment">\xrefitem todo "Todo" "Todo List" </pre><p>Since it is very tedious and error-prone to repeat the first three parameters of the command for each section, the command is meant to be used in combination with the <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_aliases">ALIASES</a> option in the configuration file. To define a new command <code>\reminder</code>, for instance, one should add the following line to the configuration file: </p><pre class="fragment">ALIASES += "reminder=\xrefitem reminders \"Reminder\" \"Reminders\"" </pre><p> Note the use of escaped quotes for the second and third argument of the <code>\xrefitem</code> command.</p>
<p>In case parameter "(heading)" is the empty string no heading is generated. This can be useful when used in combination with the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdpage">\page</a> command e.g. </p><pre class="fragment">/** @page my_errors My Errors
* @brief Errors page
*
* Errors page contents.
*/
/** \error ERROR 101: in case a file can not be opened.
Check about file system read/write access. */

All text between the <code>\link</code> and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdendlink">\endlink</a> commands serves as text for a link to the <link-object> specified as the first argument of <code>\link</code>.</p>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdref"></a>
\ref <name> ["(text)"]</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cref"></a> Creates a reference to a named section, subsection, page or anchor. For HTML documentation the reference command will generate a link to the section. For a section or subsection the title of the section will be used as the text of the link. For an anchor the optional text between quotes will be used or <name> if no text is specified. For <img class="formulaInl" alt="$\mbox{\LaTeX}$" src="form_0.png"/> documentation the reference command will generate a section number for sections or the text followed by a page number if <name> refers to an anchor.</p>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdrefitem"></a>
\refitem <name></h1>
<p><a name="a:5crefitem"></a> Just like the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdref">\ref</a> command, this command creates a reference to a named section, but this reference appears in a list that is started by <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdsecreflist">\secreflist</a> and ends with <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdendsecreflist">\endsecreflist</a>. An example of such a list can be seen <a class="el" href="commands.html#showsecreflist">at the top of the page</a>.</p>
<hr/>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdsecreflist"></a>
\secreflist</h1>
<p><a name="a:5csecreflist"></a> Starts an index list of item, created with <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdrefitem">\refitem</a> that each link to a named section.</p>
<hr/>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdendsecreflist"></a>
\endsecreflist</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cendsecreflist"></a> End an index list started with <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdsecreflist">\secreflist</a>.</p>
<hr/>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdsubpage"></a>
\subpage <name> ["(text)"]</h1>
<p><a name="a:5csubpage"></a> This command can be used to create a hierarchy of pages. The same structure can be made using the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmddefgroup">\defgroup</a> and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdingroup">\ingroup</a> commands, but for pages the <code>\subpage</code> command is often more convenient. The main page (see <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdmainpage">\mainpage</a>) is typically the root of hierarchy.</p>
<p>This command behaves similar as <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdref">\ref</a> in the sense that it creates a reference to a page labeled <name> with the optional link text as specified in the second argument.</p>
<p>It differs from the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdref">\ref</a> command in that it only works for pages, and creates a parent-child relation between pages, where the child page (or sub page) is identified by label <name>.</p>
<p>See the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdsection">\section</a> and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdsubsection">\subsection</a> commands if you want to add structure without creating multiple pages.</p>
<dl class="section note"><dt>Note</dt><dd>Each page can be the sub page of only one other page and no cyclic relations are allowed, i.e. the page hierarchy must have a tree structure.</dd></dl>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmddontinclude"></a>
\dontinclude <file-name></h1>
<p><a name="a:5cdontinclude"></a> This command can be used to parse a source file without actually verbatim including it in the documentation (as the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdinclude">\include</a> command does). This is useful if you want to divide the source file into smaller pieces and add documentation between the pieces. Source files or directories can be specified using the <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_example_path">EXAMPLE_PATH</a> tag of doxygen's configuration file.</p>
<p>The class and member declarations and definitions inside the code fragment are 'remembered' during the parsing of the comment block that contained the <code>\dontinclude</code> command.</p>
<p>For line by line descriptions of source files, one or more lines of the example can be displayed using the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdline">\line</a>, <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdskip">\skip</a>, <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdskipline">\skipline</a>, and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmduntil">\until</a> commands. An internal pointer is used for these commands. The <code>\dontinclude</code> command sets the pointer to the first line of the example.</p>

<p>Alternatively, the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdsnippet">\snippet</a> command can be used to include only a fragment of a source file. For this to work the fragment has to be marked.</p>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdinclude"></a>
\include <file-name></h1>
<p><a name="a:5cinclude"></a> This command can be used to include a source file as a block of code. The command takes the name of an include file as an argument. Source files or directories can be specified using the <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_example_path">EXAMPLE_PATH</a> tag of doxygen's configuration file.</p>
<p>If <file-name> itself is not unique for the set of example files specified by the <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_example_path">EXAMPLE_PATH</a> tag, you can include part of the absolute path to disambiguate it.</p>
<p>Using the <code>\include</code> command is equivalent to inserting the file into the documentation block and surrounding it with <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdcode">\code</a> and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdendcode">\endcode</a> commands.</p>
<p>The main purpose of the <code>\include</code> command is to avoid code duplication in case of example blocks that consist of multiple source and header files.</p>
<p>For a line by line description of a source files use the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmddontinclude">\dontinclude</a> command in combination with the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdline">\line</a>, <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdskip">\skip</a>, <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdskipline">\skipline</a>, and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmduntil">\until</a> commands.</p>

\code [ '{'<word>'}']</h1>
<p><a name="a:5ccode"></a> Starts a block of code. A code block is treated differently from ordinary text. It is interpreted as source code. The names of classes and members and other documented entities are automatically replaced by links to the documentation.</p>
<p>By default the language that is assumed for syntax highlighting is based on the location where the <code>\code</code> block was found. If this part of a Python file for instance, the syntax highlight will be done according to the Python syntax.</p>
<p>If it unclear from the context which language is meant (for instance the comment is in a <code>.txt</code> or <code>.markdown</code> file) then you can also explicitly indicate the language, by putting the file extension typically that doxygen associated with the language in curly brackets after the code block. Here is an example:</p>
<pre class="fragment"> \code{.py}
class Python:
pass
\endcode
\code{.cpp}
class Cpp {};

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmdcopydoc"></a>
\copydoc <link-object></h1>
<p><a name="a:5ccopydoc"></a> Copies a documentation block from the object specified by <link-object> and pastes it at the location of the command. This command can be useful to avoid cases where a documentation block would otherwise have to be duplicated or it can be used to extend the documentation of an inherited member.</p>
<p>The link object can point to a member (of a class, file or group), a class, a namespace, a group, a page, or a file (checked in that order). Note that if the object pointed to is a member (function, variable, typedef, etc), the compound (class, file, or group) containing it should also be documented for the copying to work.</p>
<p>To copy the documentation for a member of a class one can, for instance, put the following in the documentation:</p>
<pre class="fragment"> /*! @copydoc MyClass::myfunction()
* More documentation.
*/
</pre><p>if the member is overloaded, you should specify the argument types explicitly (without spaces!), like in the following:</p>
<pre class="fragment"> //! @copydoc MyClass::myfunction(type1,type2)
</pre><p>Qualified names are only needed if the context in which the documentation block is found requires them.</p>
<p>The <code>\copydoc</code> command can be used recursively, but cycles in the <code>\copydoc</code> relation will be broken and flagged as an error.</p>
<p>Note that <code>\copydoc foo()</code> is roughly equivalent to doing: </p><pre class="fragment"> \brief \copybrief foo()
\details \copydetails foo()
</pre><p> See <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdcopybrief">\copybrief</a> and <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdcopydetails">\copydetails</a> for copying only the brief or detailed part of the comment block.</p>

<h1><a class="anchor" id="cmddot"></a>
\dot ["caption"] [<sizeindication>=<size>]</h1>
<p><a name="a:5cdot"></a> Starts a text fragment which should contain a valid description of a dot graph. The text fragment ends with <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdenddot">\enddot</a>. Doxygen will pass the text on to dot and include the resulting image (and image map) into the output.</p>
<p>The first argument is optional and can be used to specify the caption that is displayed below the image. This argument has to be specified between quotes even if it does not contain any spaces. The quotes are stripped before the caption is displayed.</p>
<p>The second argument is also optional and can be used to specify the width or height of the image. For a description of the possibilities see the paragraph <a class="el" href="commands.html#image_sizeindicator">Size indication</a> with the <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdimage">\image</a> command.</p>
<p>The nodes of a graph can be made clickable by using the URL attribute. By using the command <a class="el" href="commands.html#cmdref">\ref</a> inside the URL value you can conveniently link to an item inside doxygen. Here is an example: </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="comment">/*! class B */</span></div><div class="line"><span class="keyword">class </span>B {};</div><div class="line"><span class="comment"></span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment">/*! class C */</span></div><div class="line"><span class="keyword">class </span>C {};</div><div class="line"><span class="comment"></span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment">/*! \mainpage</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> </span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * Class relations expressed via an inline dot graph:</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * \dot</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * digraph example {</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * node [shape=record, fontname=Helvetica, fontsize=10];</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * b [ label="class B" URL="\ref B"];</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * c [ label="class C" URL="\ref C"];</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * b -> c [ arrowhead="open", style="dashed" ];</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * }</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * \enddot</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * Note that the classes in the above graph are clickable</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> * (in the HTML output).</span></div><div class="line"><span class="comment"> */</span></div></div><!-- fragment --><hr/>

<p><a name="a:5cimage"></a> Inserts an image into the documentation. This command is format specific, so if you want to insert an image for more than one format you'll have to repeat this command for each format.</p>
<p>The first argument specifies the output format in which the image should be embedded. Currently, the following values are supported: <code>html</code>, <code>latex</code>, <code>docbook</code> and <code>rtf</code>.</p>
<p>The second argument specifies the file name of the image. doxygen will look for files in the paths (or files) that you specified after the <a class="el" href="config.html#cfg_image_path">IMAGE_PATH</a> tag. If the image is found it will be copied to the correct output directory. If the image name contains spaces you'll have to put quotes ("...") around the name. You can also specify an absolute URL instead of a file name, but then doxygen does not copy the image nor check its existence.</p>
