Re: [Bug-apl] SVN 984 changes

Hi Peter,

it is difficult for me to do that because I have no access to a Mac computer.

I would assume that the place where Doxygen is installed does not matter as long as your shell
can find it. The only other thing that Doxygen cares about (speaking for the Ubuntu version) is where
the config file is located (one can specify that file on the command line that invokes doxygen).

So it would be good to know if your make DOXY fails because the doxygen command itself was not
found, or because the doxygen command could not find its config file (which is normally ./Doxyfile)

Best Regards,

Hi Jürgen:

If you are working with Make please look at Make DOXY 

which doesn’t work on Mac (in my case but maybe others as well)

On Macintosh there is a Doxygen download from their site.

<http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html>

"Doxygen-1.8.13.dmg (54.6MB) ( ftp | http )
This is a self-contained disk image, which contains the GUI frontend. 

 The binaries support the whole range of Intel CPUs (both 32 and 64 bit). “    

Basically there is a GUI front end for configuration and then a button to run doxygen which is included in the app.

On Mac one opens the .dmg and drags the app somewhere, usually the Application folder/directory.

And then launches the app, perhaps by making it available from the dock…

To use the present Make file one would have to install doxygen itself somewhere, /usr/local/bin or some such place.

It would be interesting to know what other Mac users do, but I use the “official” one as per above….

respect….
