Giving Doxygen a test whirl with audacity / Heekscad

I wanted to see what this Doxygen tool does.  I’ve come to the conclusion that audacity is a project is a exceeding complex project that appears at first glance to have it’s game on.  Time to kick the tires, look under the hood and take her for a spin.

I downloaded doxygen and doxygen-gui from the synaptic repository.   Since I have a preference for gui’s I ran doxywizard.

Step 1) Specify working directory from which doxygen will run.

/usr/bin

Step 2) Configure doxygen using the wizard..

(Make sure you check recursive for the source code..  This is where things went wrong on the first attempt.)

I ran across this beginners tutorial on doxygen.

http://www.jiggerjuice.net/software/doxygen.html

What a nice little site.

Ok… I just got done running doxygen on audacity.

It took a while but the result was impressive.
Ok.. Time to give it a whirl on heekscad and see what happens. (Back to bed and hopefully I have a few moments before I go work to check out the result)

Just a note to self.  I didn’t use the dot tool on audacity.  I did on heeks (probably a mistake) Needed to install graphviz and restart doxygen.
Need to try the dot tool on audacity and see what looks different.
