It is parsed by \c doxygen. The file may contain tabs and newlines for formatting purposes. The statements in the file are case-sensitive. Comments may be placed anywhere within the file (except within quotes). Comments begin with the \# character and end at the end of the line. The file essentially consists of a list of assignment statements. Each statement consists of a \c TAG_NAME written in capitals, followed by the = character and one or more values. If the same tag is assigned more than once, the last assignment overwrites any earlier assignment. For options that take a list as their argument, the += operator can be used instead of = to append new values to the list. Values are sequences of non-blanks. If the value should contain one or more blanks it must be surrounded by quotes ("..."). Multiple lines can be concatenated by inserting a backslash (\\) as the last character of a line. Environment variables can be expanded using the pattern \c $(ENV_VARIABLE_NAME). You can also include part of a configuration file from another configuration file using a \@INCLUDE tag as follows: \verbatim @INCLUDE = config_file_name \endverbatim The include file is searched in the current working directory. You can also specify a list of directories that should be searched before looking in the current working directory. Do this by putting a \@INCLUDE_PATH tag with these paths before the \@INCLUDE tag, e.g: \verbatim @INCLUDE_PATH = my_config_dir \endverbatim The configuration options can be divided into several categories. Below is an alphabetical index of the tags that are recognized followed by the descriptions of the tags grouped by category. \secreflist \refitem cfg_aliases ALIASES \refitem cfg_allexternals

\c OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
\addindex OUTPUT_DIRECTORY The \c OUTPUT_DIRECTORY tag is used to specify the (relative or absolute) path into which the generated documentation will be written. If a relative path is entered, it will be relative to the location where doxygen was started. If left blank the current directory will be used. \anchor cfg_output_language
\c OUTPUT_LANGUAGE
\addindex OUTPUT_LANGUAGE The \c OUTPUT_LANGUAGE tag is used to specify the language in which all documentation generated by doxygen is written.

\c REPEAT_BRIEF
\addindex REPEAT_BRIEF If the \c REPEAT_BRIEF tag is set to \c YES (the default) doxygen will prepend the brief description of a member or function before the detailed description \par Note: If both \c HIDE_UNDOC_MEMBERS and \c BRIEF_MEMBER_DESC are set to \c NO, the brief descriptions will be completely suppressed. \anchor cfg_always_detailed_sec
\c ALWAYS_DETAILED_SEC
\addindex ALWAYS_DETAILED_SEC If the \c ALWAYS_DETAILED_SEC and \c REPEAT_BRIEF tags are both set to \c YES then doxygen will generate a detailed section even if there is only a brief description. \anchor cfg_inline_inherited_memb

\addindex INLINE_INHERITED_MEMB If the \c INLINE_INHERITED_MEMB tag is set to \c YES, doxygen will show all inherited members of a class in the documentation of that class as if those members were ordinary class members. Constructors, destructors and assignment operators of the base classes will not be shown. \anchor cfg_full_path_names
\c FULL_PATH_NAMES
\addindex FULL_PATH_NAMES If the \c FULL_PATH_NAMES tag is set to \c YES doxygen will prepend the full path before files name in the file list and in the header files. If set to NO the shortest path that makes the file name unique will be used \anchor cfg_strip_from_path

\c CASE_SENSE_NAMES
\addindex CASE_SENSE_NAMES If the \c CASE_SENSE_NAMES tag is set to \c NO (the default) then doxygen will only generate file names in lower case letters. If set to \c YES upper case letters are also allowed. This is useful if you have classes or files whose names only differ in case and if your file system supports case sensitive file names. \anchor cfg_short_names
\c SHORT_NAMES
\addindex SHORT_NAMES If the \c SHORT_NAMES tag is set to \c YES, doxygen will generate much shorter (but less readable) file names. This can be useful is your file systems doesn't support long names like on DOS, Mac, or CD-ROM. \anchor cfg_hide_scope_names
\c HIDE_SCOPE_NAMES
\addindex HIDE_SCOPE_NAMES If the \c HIDE_SCOPE_NAMES tag is set to \c NO (the default) then doxygen will show members with their full class and namespace scopes in the documentation. If set to \c YES the scope will be hidden. \anchor cfg_verbatim_headers

\c MULTILINE_CPP_IS_BRIEF
\addindex MULTILINE_CPP_IS_BRIEF The MULTILINE_CPP_IS_BRIEF tag can be set to YES to make Doxygen treat a multi-line C++ special comment block (i.e. a block of //! or /// comments) as a brief description. This used to be the default behaviour. The new default is to treat a multi-line C++ comment block as a detailed description. Set this tag to YES if you prefer the old behaviour instead. \anchor cfg_details_at_top
\c DETAILS_AT_TOP
\addindex DETAILS_AT_TOP If the DETAILS_AT_TOP tag is set to YES then Doxygen will output the detailed description near the top, like JavaDoc. If set to NO, the detailed description appears after the member documentation. \anchor cfg_inherit_docs

An alias has the form \verbatim name=value \endverbatim For example adding \verbatim "sideeffect=\par Side Effects:\n" \endverbatim will allow you to put the command \\sideeffect (or \@sideeffect) in the documentation, which will result in a user defined paragraph with heading "Side Effects:". You can put \\n's in the value part of an alias to insert newlines. \anchor cfg_max_initializer_lines
\c MAX_INITIALIZER_LINES
\addindex MAX_INITIALIZER_LINES The \c MAX_INITIALIZER_LINES tag determines the maximum number of lines that the initial value of a variable or define can be. If the initializer consists of more lines than specified here it will be hidden. Use a value of 0 to hide initializers completely. The appearance of the value of individual variables and defines can be controlled using \ref cmdshowinitializer "\\showinitializer" or \ref cmdhideinitializer "\\hideinitializer" command in the documentation. \anchor cfg_optimize_output_for_c
\c OPTIMIZE_OUTPUT_FOR_C
\addindex OPTIMIZE_OUTPUT_FOR_C Set the \c OPTIMIZE_OUTPUT_FOR_C tag to \c YES if your project consists of C sources only. Doxygen will then generate output that is more tailored for C.

To get valid HTML the header file should contain at least a \c \ and a \c \ tag, but it is good idea to include the style sheet that is generated by doxygen as well. Minimal example: \verbatim My title \endverbatim If the tag is left blank doxygen will generate a standard header. The following commands have a special meaning inside the header: \$title, \$datetime, \$date, \$doxygenversion, \$projectname, \$projectnumber. Doxygen will replace them by respectively the title of the page, the current date and time, only the current date, the version number of doxygen, the project name (see \c PROJECT_NAME), or the project number (see \c PROJECT_NUMBER). See also section \ref doxygen_usage for information on how to generate the default header that doxygen normally uses. \anchor cfg_html_footer
\c HTML_FOOTER
\addindex HTML_FOOTER The \c HTML_FOOTER tag can be used to specify a user defined HTML footer for each generated HTML page. To get valid HTML the header file should contain at least a \c \ and a \c \ tag. A minimal example: \verbatim \endverbatim If the tag is left blank doxygen will generate a standard footer. The following commands have a special meaning inside the header: \$title, \$datetime, \$date, \$doxygenversion, \$projectname, \$projectnumber. Doxygen will replace them by respectively the title of the page, the current date and time, only the current date, the version number of doxygen, the project name (see \c PROJECT_NAME), or the project number (see \c PROJECT_NUMBER). See also section \ref doxygen_usage for information on how to generate the default footer that doxygen normally uses. \anchor cfg_html_stylesheet
\c HTML_STYLESHEET
\addindex HTML_STYLESHEET The \c HTML_STYLESHEET tag can be used to specify a user defined cascading style sheet that is used by each HTML page. It can be used to fine-tune the look of the HTML output. If the tag is left blank doxygen will generate a default style sheet. See also section \ref doxygen_usage for information on how to generate the style sheet that doxygen normally uses. \anchor cfg_html_align_members
\c HTML_ALIGN_MEMBERS
\addindex HTML_ALIGN_MEMBERS If the \c HTML_ALIGN_MEMBERS tag is set to \c YES, the members of classes, files or namespaces will be aligned in HTML using tables. If set to \c NO a bullet list will be used. Note: Setting this tag to \c NO will become obsolete in the future, since I only intent to support and test the aligned representation. \anchor cfg_generate_htmlhelp
\c GENERATE_HTMLHELP
\addindex GENERATE_HTMLHELP If the \c GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to \c YES then doxygen generates three additional HTML index files: \c index.hhp, \c index.hhc, and \c index.hhk. The \c index.hhp is a project file that can be read by Microsoft's HTML Help Workshop on Windows. The HTML Help Workshop contains a compiler that can convert all HTML output generated by doxygen into a single compressed HTML file (.chm). Compressed HTML files are now used as the Windows 98 help format, and will replace the old Windows help format (.hlp) on all Windows platforms in the future. Compressed HTML files also contain an index, a table of contents, and you can search for words in the documentation (which basically renders \c doxysearch obsolete on Windows). The HTML workshop also contains a viewer for compressed HTML files. \anchor cfg_chm_file
\c CHM_FILE
\addindex CHM_FILE If the \c GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to \c YES, the \c CHM_FILE tag can be used to specify the file name of the resulting .chm file. You can add a path in front of the file if the result should not be written to the html output dir. \anchor cfg_hhc_location
\c HHC_LOCATION
\addindex HHC_LOCATION If the \c GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to \c YES, the \c HHC_LOCATION tag can be used to specify the location (absolute path including file name) of the HTML help compiler (hhc.exe). If non empty doxygen will try to run the html help compiler on the generated index.hhp. \anchor cfg_generate_chi
\c GENERATE_CHI
\addindex GENERATE_CHI If the \c GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to \c YES, the \c GENERATE_CHI flag controls if a separate .chi index file is generated (YES) or that it should be included in the master .chm file (NO). \anchor cfg_binary_toc
\c BINARY_TOC
\addindex BINARY_TOC If the \c GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to \c YES, the \c BINARY_TOC flag controls whether a binary table of contents is generated (YES) or a normal table of contents (NO) in the .chm file. \anchor cfg_toc_expand
\c TOC_EXPAND
\addindex TOC_EXPAND The \c TOC_EXPAND flag can be set to YES to add extra items for group members to the table of contents of the HTML help documentation and to the tree view. \anchor cfg_disable_index
\c DISABLE_INDEX
\addindex DISABLE_INDEX If you want full control over the layout of the generated HTML pages it might be necessary to disable the index and replace it with your own. The \c DISABLE_INDEX tag can be used to turn on/off the condensed index at top of each page. A value of NO (the default) enables the index and the value YES disables it. \anchor cfg_enum_values_per_line
\c ENUM_VALUES_PER_LINE
\addindex ENUM_VALUES_PER_LINE This tag can be used to set the number of enum values (range [1..20]) that doxygen will group on one line in the generated HTML documentation. \anchor cfg_generate_treeview
\c GENERATE_TREEVIEW
\addindex GENERATE_TREEVIEW If the \c GENERATE_TREEVIEW tag is set to YES, a side pannel will be generated containing a tree-like index structure (just like the one that is generated for HTML Help). For this to work a browser that supports JavaScript and frames is required (for instance Netscape 4.0+ or Internet explorer 4.0+). \anchor cfg_treeview_width
\c TREEVIEW_WIDTH
\addindex TREEVIEW_WIDTH If the treeview is enabled (see \c GENERATE_TREEVIEW) then this tag can be used to set the initial width (in pixels) of the frame in which the tree is shown.
\section latex_output LaTeX related options \anchor cfg_generate_latex

\c COMPACT_LATEX
\addindex COMPACT_LATEX If the \c COMPACT_LATEX tag is set to \c YES doxygen generates more compact \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ documents. This may be useful for small projects and may help to save some trees in general. \anchor cfg_paper_type
\c PAPER_TYPE
\addindex PAPER_TYPE The \c PAPER_TYPE tag can be used to set the paper type that is used by the printer. Possible values are: If left blank a4wide will be used. \anchor cfg_extra_packages
\c EXTRA_PACKAGES
\addindex EXTRA_PACKAGES The \c EXTRA_PACKAGES tag can be used to specify one or more \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ package names that should be included in the \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ output. To get the times font for instance you can specify \verbatim EXTRA_PACKAGES = times \endverbatim If left blank no extra packages will be included. \anchor cfg_latex_header
\c LATEX_HEADER
\addindex LATEX_HEADER The \c LATEX_HEADER tag can be used to specify a personal \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ header for the generated \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ document. The header should contain everything until the first chapter. If it is left blank doxygen will generate a standard header. See section \ref doxygen_usage for information on how to let doxygen write the default header to a separate file. \par Note: Only use a user defined header if you know what you are doing! The following commands have a special meaning inside the header: \$title, \$datetime, \$date, \$doxygenversion, \$projectname, \$projectnumber. Doxygen will replace them by respectively the title of the page, the current date and time, only the current date, the version number of doxygen, the project name (see \c PROJECT_NAME), or the project number (see \c PROJECT_NUMBER). \anchor cfg_pdf_hyperlinks
\c PDF_HYPERLINKS
\addindex PDF_HYPERLINKS If the \c PDF_HYPERLINKS tag is set to \c YES, the \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ that is generated is prepared for conversion to PDF (using ps2pdf). The PDF file will contain links (just like the HTML output) instead of page references. This makes the output suitable for online browsing using a PDF viewer. \anchor cfg_latex_pdflatex
\c USE_PDFLATEX
\addindex LATEX_PDFLATEX If the \c LATEX_PDFLATEX tag is set to \c YES, doxygen will use pdflatex to generate the PDF file directly from the \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ files. \anchor cfg_latex_batchmode
\c LATEX_BATCHMODE
\addindex LATEX_BATCHMODE If the \c LATEX_BATCHMODE tag is set to \c YES, doxygen will add the \\batchmode. command to the generated \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ files. This will instruct \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$ to keep running if errors occur, instead of asking the user for help. This option is also used when generating formulas in HTML.
\section rtf_output RTF related options \anchor cfg_generate_rtf
\c GENERATE_RTF
\addindex GENERATE_RTF If the \c GENERATE_RTF tag is set to \c YES doxygen will generate RTF output. The RTF output is optimised for Word 97 and may not look too pretty with other readers/editors. \anchor cfg_rtf_output
\c RTF_OUTPUT
\addindex RTF_OUTPUT The \c RTF_OUTPUT tag is used to specify where the RTF docs will be put. If a relative path is entered the value of \c OUTPUT_DIRECTORY will be put in front of it. If left blank \c rtf will be used as the default path. \anchor cfg_compact_rtf
\c COMPACT_RTF
\addindex COMPACT_RTF If the \c COMPACT_RTF tag is set to \c YES doxygen generates more compact RTF documents. This may be useful for small projects and may help to save some trees in general. \anchor cfg_rtf_hyperlinks
\c RTF_HYPERLINKS
\addindex RTF_HYPERLINKS If the \c RTF_HYPERLINKS tag is set to \c YES, the RTF that is generated will contain hyperlink fields. The RTF file will contain links (just like the HTML output) instead of page references. This makes the output suitable for online browsing using Word or some other Word compatible reader that support those fields. \par note: WordPad (write) and others do not support links. \anchor cfg_rtf_stylesheet_file
\c RTF_STYLESHEET_FILE
\addindex RTF_STYLESHEET_FILE Load stylesheet definitions from file. Syntax is similar to doxygen's config file, i.e. a series of assigments. You only have to provide replacements, missing definitions are set to their default value. See also section \ref doxygen_usage for information on how to generate the default style sheet that doxygen normally uses. \anchor cfg_rtf_extensions_file
\c RTF_EXTENSIONS_FILE
Set optional variables used in the generation of an RTF document. Syntax is similar to doxygen's config file. A template extensions file can be generated using doxygen -e rtf extensionFile.
\section man_output Man page related options \anchor cfg_generate_man

\addindex GENERATE_MAN If the \c GENERATE_MAN tag is set to \c YES (the default) doxygen will generate man pages for classes and files. \anchor cfg_man_output
\c MAN_OUTPUT
\addindex MAN_OUTPUT The \c MAN_OUTPUT tag is used to specify where the man pages will be put. If a relative path is entered the value of \c OUTPUT_DIRECTORY will be put in front of it. If left blank `man' will be used as the default path. A directory man3 will be created inside the directory specified by \c MAN_OUTPUT. \anchor cfg_man_extension
\c MAN_EXTENSION
\addindex MAX_EXTENSION The \c MAN_EXTENSION tag determines the extension that is added to the generated man pages (default is the subroutine's section .3) \anchor cfg_man_links
\c MAN_LINKS
\addindex MAN_LINKS If the \c MAN_LINKS tag is set to \c YES and doxygen generates man output, then it will generate one additional man file for each entity documented in the real man page(s). These additional files only source the real man page, but without them the man command would be unable to find the correct page. The default is \c NO.
\section xml_output XML related options \anchor cfg_generate_xml
\c GENERATE_XML
\addindex GENERATE_XML If the GENERATE_XML tag is set to YES Doxygen will generate an XML file that captures the structure of the code including all documentation. \anchor cfg_xml_schema

\addindex XML_SCHEMA The XML_SCHEMA tag can be used to specify an XML schema, which can be used by a validating XML parser to check the syntax of the XML files. \anchor cfg_xml_dtd
\c XML_DTD
\addindex XML_DTD The XML_DTD tag can be used to specify an XML DTD, which can be used by a validating XML parser to check the syntax of the XML files.
\section config_prepro Preprocessor related options \anchor cfg_enable_preprocessing
\c ENABLE_PREPROCESSING
\addindex ENABLE_PREPROCESSING If the \c ENABLE_PREPROCESSING tag is set to \c YES (the default) doxygen will evaluate all C-preprocessor directives found in the sources and include files. \anchor cfg_macro_expansion
\c MACRO_EXPANSION
\addindex MACRO_EXPANSION If the \c MACRO_EXPANSION tag is set to \c YES doxygen will expand all macro names in the source code. If set to \c NO (the default) only conditional compilation will be performed. Macro expansion can be done in a controlled way by setting \c EXPAND_ONLY_PREDEF to \c YES. \anchor cfg_expand_only_predef
\c EXPAND_ONLY_PREDEF
\addindex EXPAND_ONLY_PREDEF If the \c EXPAND_ONLY_PREDEF and \c MACRO_EXPANSION tags are both set to YES then the macro expansion is limited to the macros specified with the \c PREDEFINED and \c EXPAND_AS_DEFINED tags. \anchor cfg_search_includes
\c SEARCH_INCLUDES
\addindex SEARCH_INCLUDES If the \c SEARCH_INCLUDES tag is set to \c YES (the default) the includes files in the \c INCLUDE_PATH (see below) will be searched if a \#include is found. \anchor cfg_include_path
\c INCLUDE_PATH
\addindex INCLUDE_PATH The \c INCLUDE_PATH tag can be used to specify one or more directories that contain include files that are not input files but should be processed by the preprocessor. \anchor cfg_predefined
\c PREDEFINED
\addindex PREDEFINED The \c PREDEFINED tag can be used to specify one or more macro names that are defined before the preprocessor is started (similar to the -D option of gcc). The argument of the tag is a list of macros of the form: name or name=definition (no spaces). If the definition and the "=" are omitted, "=1" is assumed. \anchor cfg_expand_as_defined
\c EXPAND_AS_DEFINED
\addindex EXPAND_AS_DEFINED If the \c MACRO_EXPANSION and \c EXPAND_ONLY_PREDEF tags are set to \c YES then this tag can be used to specify a list of macro names that should be expanded. The macro definition that is found in the sources will be used. Use the \c PREDEFINED tag if you want to use a different macro definition. \anchor cfg_skip_function_macros
\c SKIP_FUNCTION_MACROS
\addindex SKIP_FUNCTION_MACROS If the \c SKIP_FUNCTION_MACROS tag is set to \c YES (the default) then doxygen's preprocessor will remove all function-like macros that are alone on a line, have an all uppercase name, and do not end with a semicolon. Such function macros are typically used for boiler-plate code, and will confuse the parser if not removed.
\section config_extref External reference options \anchor cfg_tagfiles
\c TAGFILES
\addindex TAGFILES The \c TAGFILES tag can be used to specify one or more tagfiles. See section \ref doxytag_usage for more information about the usage of tag files. Optionally an initial location of the external documentation can be added for each tagfile. The format of a tag file without this location is as follows:
TAGFILES = file1 file2 ... 
Adding location for the tag files is done as follows:
TAGFILES = file1=loc1 "file2 = loc2" ... 
where \c loc1 and \c loc2 can be relative or absolute paths or URLs, If a location is present for each tag, the installdox tool (see section \ref installdox_usage for more information) does not have to be run to correct the links. \par Note: Each tag file must have a unique name (where the name does \e not include the path) If a tag file is not located in the directory in which doxygen is run, you must also specify the path to the tagfile here. \anchor cfg_generate_tagfile
\c GENERATE_TAGFILE
\addindex GENERATE_TAGFILE When a file name is specified after \c GENERATE_TAGFILE, doxygen will create a tag file that is based on the input files it reads. See section \ref doxytag_usage for more information about the usage of tag files. \anchor cfg_allexternals

\section config_dot Dot options \anchor cfg_class_diagrams
\c CLASS_DIAGRAMS
\addindex CLASS_DIAGRAMS If the \c CLASS_DIAGRAMS tag is set to \c YES (the default) doxygen will generate a class diagram (in HTML and \f$\mbox{\LaTeX}\f$) for classes with base or super classes. Setting the tag to \c NO turns the diagrams off. Note that this option is superceded by the HAVE_DOT option below. This is only a fallback. It is recommended to install and use dot, since it yield more powerful graphs. \anchor cfg_have_dot
\c HAVE_DOT
\addindex HAVE_DOT If you set the \c HAVE_DOT tag to \c YES then doxygen will assume the dot tool is available from the path. This tool is part of Graphviz, a graph visualization toolkit from AT\&T and Lucent Bell Labs. The other options in this section have no effect if this option is set to \c NO (the default) \anchor cfg_class_graph
\c CLASS_GRAPH
\addindex CLASS_GRAPH If the \c CLASS_GRAPH and \c HAVE_DOT tags are set to \c YES then doxygen will generate a graph for each documented class showing the direct and indirect inheritance relations. Setting this tag to \c YES will force the the \c CLASS_DIAGRAMS tag to NO. \anchor cfg_collaboration_graph
\c COLLABORATION_GRAPH
\addindex COLLABORATION_GRAPH If the \c COLLABORATION_GRAPH and \c HAVE_DOT tags are set to \c YES then doxygen will generate a graph for each documented class showing the direct and indirect implementation dependencies (inheritance, containment, and class references variables) of the class with other documented classes. \anchor cfg_template_relations
\c TEMPLATE_RELATIONS
\addindex TEMPLATE_RELATIONS If the \c TEMPLATE_RELATIONS and \c HAVE_DOT tags are set to \c YES then doxygen will show the relations between templates and their instances. \anchor cfg_hide_undoc_relations

\c MAX_DOT_GRAPH_HEIGHT
\addindex MAX_DOT_GRAPH_HEIGHT The \c MAX_DOT_GRAPH_HEIGHT tag can be used to set the maximum allows height (in pixels) of the graphs generated by dot. If a graph becomes larger than this value, doxygen will try to truncate the graph, so that it fits within the specified constraint. Beware that most browsers cannot cope with very large images. \anchor cfg_max_dot_graph_width
\c MAX_DOT_GRAPH_WIDTH
\addindex MAX_DOT_GRAPH_WIDTH The \c MAX_DOT_GRAPH_WIDTH tag can be used to set the maximum allowed width (in pixels) of the graphs generated by dot. If a graph becomes larger than this value, doxygen will try to truncate the graph, so that it fits within the specified constraint. Beware that most browsers cannot cope with very large images. \anchor cfg_generate_legend
