DoxyPress is a modern C++ application for generating documentation from annotated sources and API documentation. DoxyPress and DoxyPressApp were initially derived from Doxygen and DoxyWizard.
Parsing
- User selection for full parsing of C and C++ with clang in lieu of the legacy lex parser
- Clang parser allows complicated modern C++ to be parsed accurately, especially as C++ is updated
- Added a new parser for makefiles
- Documents the following computer languages: C, C++, Objective-C, C#, Fortran, Java, IDL, Python, PHP, and TCL
Classes and Containers
- DoxyPress links with the CopperSpice libraries
- Removed all Qt 2 classes and containers
- Refactored to use value based containers instead of pointer based containers
- For improved memory management variadic templates and shared pointers are used
- Source code reformatted for improved readability
- Modified source code to use modern C++ functionality, features, and syntax
Output
- Project file format enhanced to use a JSON format for improved functionality
- Command line option to convert Doxygen project files to the DoxyPress JSON format
- Enhanced layout file to include new sections
- Major improvements to the html output for correctness
DoxyPress prebuilt binaries are available for Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows.

To build DoxyPress from source a current copy of the CopperSpice libraries, a C++17 compiler, and a C++17 standard library are required. DoxyPress links with CsCore and CsXml which are part of the CopperSpice libraries.
CMake build files are provided with the DoxyPress source distribution.
-
C++17 compiler
-
CopperSpice CsCore and CsXml libraries
-
C++17 standard library when using clang for parsing
-
clang 10 must be compiled with RTTI enabled ( pre-built bianary files are available from our download page )
Full documentation for DoxyPress is available on the website or from our download page.
