ITK/Doxygen Documentation

Dependencies

Generating a complete doxygen documentation requires (apart from cmake and ITK source code)

• doxygen (see http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html)
• dot from GraphViz for generating inheritance and dependency graph (see http://www.graphviz.org/)
• latex for formulas (see http://www.latex-project.org/)

Generating the Doxygen documentation

Complete doxygen documentation

To generate the complete doxygen documentation (of the whole toolkit), the same as the online doxygen documentation

• In CMake BUILD_DOCUMENTATION must be turned ON !!
• Build the project as you would normally do, it will build both the ITK libraries/binaries and the doxygen documentation

Note that depending on your machine, this process can take a lot time.

Enabled modules documentation

To generate the doxygen documentation of enabled modules documentation (a subset of the complete one)

• In CMake BUILD_DOCUMENTATION and DOXYGEN_MODULE_ENABLED must be turned ON !!
• Build the project as you would normally do, it will build both the ITK libraries/binaries and the doxygen documentation

Documenting modules

Is there a way to create a dependency graph of the modules?

That would be great!! Right now, what's being done is that at cmake time, a doxygen page is generated and at the end of the page you have a "Dependencies" section with the list of dependent modules, and links to corresponding pages.
