The version I used in the guide was v3 and I haven’t used doxygen for a while. The latest version is v4.2 so it might have changed slightly in the last year. However, here goes…

Have you got the FILTER_SOURCE_FILES set to YES? Also double check that the path to doxypy.py is correct (it’s probably different to my example on OSX).
i.e.
FILTER_SOURCE_FILES = YES
INPUT_FILTER = “python /usr/local/bin/doxypy.py”

Also from http://code.foosel.org/doxypy:
If you want to make Doxygen recognize your module docstrings, you have to add a namespace command to the docstring

Hey there. Thanks for writing up the instructions.

I followed your directions, but doxygen is failing for me. If I leave out the doxypy filter (e.g. put nothing in the INPUT_FILTER field) then I can generate documentation fine, just obviously without being able to recognize the tags. If I enable the filter, however, then the generated HTML only displays the Main Page tab (i.e. no Modules). If it matters, I’m using OSX. Any ideas?

Hi Greg,

The setup I use for Doxygen is described in my earlier post at http://www.joshuascotton.com/main/archives/64

The filter I use is doxypy from http://code.foosel.org/doxypy and I edit the config.dox file to have the following line:

INPUT_FILTER = “python /path/to/doxypy.py”

What filter do you use in DoxyGen to make tags work?
