This is a mirror of http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=987

Currently five purposes have been defined :

Generates a doxygen license comment. The tag text is configurable.

Generates a doxygen author skeleton. The tag text is configurable.

Generates a doxygen comment skeleton for a C, C++ or Python function or class, including @brief, @param (for each named argument), and @return. The tag text as well as a comment block header and footer are configurable. (Consequently, you can have \brief, etc. if you wish, with little effort.)

Ignore code fragment placed in a block defined by #ifdef ... #endif (C/C++). The block name must be given to the function. All of the corresponding blocks in all the file will be treated and placed in a new block DOX_SKIP_BLOCK (or any other name that you have configured). Then you have to update PREDEFINED value in your doxygen configuration file with correct block name. You also have to set ENABLE_PREPROCESSING to YES.

Generate a doxygen group (begining and ending). The tag text is configurable.

Use:

• Type of comments (C/C++: /// or /** ... /, Python: ## and # ) : In vim, default C++ comments are : /* ... */. But if you prefer to use /// Doxygen comments just add 'let g:DoxygenToolkit_commentType = "C++"' (without quotes) in your .vimrc file

• License : In vim, place the cursor on the line that will follow doxygen license comment. Then, execute the command :DoxLic. This will generate license comment and leave the cursor on the line just after.

• Author : In vim, place the cursor on the line that will follow doxygen author comment. Then, execute the command :DoxAuthor. This will generate the skeleton and leave the cursor just after @author tag if no variable define it, or just after the skeleton.

• Function / class comment : In vim, place the cursor on the line of the function header (or returned value of the function) or the class. Then execute the command :Dox. This will generate the skeleton and leave the cursor after the @brief tag.

• Ignore code fragment (C/C++ only) : In vim, if you want to ignore all code fragment placed in a block such as : #ifdef DEBUG ... #endif You only have to execute the command :DoxUndoc(DEBUG) !

• Group : In vim, execute the command :DoxBlock to insert a doxygen block on the following line.

Limitations:

• Assumes that the function name (and the following opening parenthesis) is at least on the third line after current cursor position.
• Not able to update a comment block after it's been written.
• Blocks delimiters (header and footer) are only included for function comment.
• Assumes that cindent is used.
• Comments in function parameters (such as void foo(int bar /* ... */, baz)) are not yet supported.

Example: Given: int foo(char mychar, int myint, double* myarray, int mask = DEFAULT) { //... }

Issuing the :Dox command with the cursor on the function declaration would generate

/**

• @brief
• @param mychar
• @param myint
• @param myarray
• @param mask
• @return */

To customize the output of the script, see the g:DoxygenToolkit_* variables in the script's source. These variables can be set in your .vimrc.

For example, my .vimrc contains: let g:DoxygenToolkit_briefTag_pre="@Synopsis " let g:DoxygenToolkit_paramTag_pre="@Param " let g:DoxygenToolkit_returnTag="@Returns " let g:DoxygenToolkit_blockHeader="--------------------------------------------------------------------------" let g:DoxygenToolkit_blockFooter="----------------------------------------------------------------------------" let g:DoxygenToolkit_authorName="Mathias Lorente" let g:DoxygenToolkit_licenseTag="My own license" <-- !!! Does not end with "<enter>"
