# Doxygen History

## Version 1.2.0

### Major new features:

- Support for RTF output.
- Using the dot tool of the AT&T's GraphViz package, doxygen can now generate inheritance diagrams, collaboration diagrams, include dependency graphs, included by graphs and graphical inheritance overviews.
- Function arguments can now be documented with separate comment blocks.
- Initializers and macro definitions are now included in the documentation.
- Variables and typedefs are now put in their own section.
- Old configuration files can be upgraded using the -u option without loosing any changes.
- Using the \if and \endif commands, doxygen can conditionally include documentation blocks.
- Added Doc++ like support for member grouping.
- Doxygen now has a GUI front-end called doxywizard (based on Qt-2.1)
- All info about configuration options is now concentrated in a new tool called configgen. This tool can generate the configuration parser and GUI front-end from source templates.
- Better support for the using keyword.
- New transparent mini logo that is put in the footer of all HTML pages.
- Internationalization support for the Polish, Portuguese and Croatian language.
- Todo list support.
- If the source browser is enabled, for a function, a list of function whose implementation calls that function, is generated.
- All source code fragments are now syntax highlighted in the HTML output. The colors can be changed using cascading style sheets.

## Version 1.0.0

### Major new features:

- Support for templates and namespaces.
- Internationalization support. Currently supported languages are: English, Czech, German, Spanish, Finnish, French, Italian, Japanese, Dutch, and Swedish.
- Automatic generation of inheritance diagrams for sub and super classes.
- Support for man page, compressed HTML help, and hyperlinked PDF output.
- Cross-referencing documentation with source code and source inlining.
- LaTeX formulas can be included in the documentation.
- Support for parsing Corba and Microsoft IDL.
- Images can be included in the documentation.
- Improved parsing and preprocessing.

## Version 0.4

### Major new features:

- LaTeX output generation.
- Full JavaDoc support.
- Build-in C-preprocessor for correct conditional parsing of source code that is read by Doxygen.
- Build-in HTML to LaTeX converter. This allows you to use HTML tags in your documentation, while doxygen still generates proper LaTeX output.
- Many new commands (there are now more than 60!) to document more entities, to make the documentation look nicer, and to include examples or pieces of examples.
- Enum types, enum values, typedefs, #defines, and files can now be documented.
- Completely new documentation, that is now generated by Doxygen.
- A lot of small examples are now included.

## Version 0.3

### Major new features:

- A PHP based search engine that allows you to search through the generated documentation.
- A configuration file instead of command-line options. A default configuration file can be generated by doxygen.
- Added an option to generate output for undocumented classes.
- Added an option to generate output for private members.
- Every page now contains a condensed index page, allowing much faster navigation through the documentation.
- Global and member variables can now be documented.
- A project name can now given, which will be included in the documentation.

## Version 0.2

### Major new features:

- Blocks of code are now parsed. Function calls and variables are replaced by links to their documentation if possible.
- Special example documentation block added. This can be used to provide cross references between the documentation and some example code.
- Documentation blocks can now be placed inside the body of a class.
- Documentation blocks with line range may now be created using special `//!` C++ line comments.
- Unrelated members can now be documented. A page containing a list of these members is generated.
- Added an `\include` command to insert blocks of source code into the documentation.
- Warnings are generated for members that are undocumented.
- You can now specify your own HTML headers and footers for the generated pages.
- Option added to generated indices containing all external classes instead of only the used ones.
