doxygen能够从代码的注释中自动生成文档。因此，熟练掌握doxygen的注释格式、配置方法和使用模式，能够极大地方便代码阅读、文档制作和代码评审。doxygen的使用可以从软件安装、配置设置、文档生成这几个方面分别介绍。
1. 软件安装
以centos 为例，首先安装doxgyen:
install doxygen
yum search doxygen
yum install doxygen-latex.x86_64 doxygen.x86_64 doxygen-doxywizard.x86_64 polkit-qt-doc.noarch
接着安装依赖的图形绘制工具软件：grahpviz
install graphviz
yum search graphviz
yum install graphviz-devel.x86_64 graphviz-doc.x86_64 graphviz-gd.x86_64 graphviz-guile.x86_64 graphviz-java.x86_64 graphviz-lua.x86_64 graphviz-perl.x86_64 graphviz-php.x86_64 graphviz-python.x86_64 graphviz-ruby.x86_64 graphviz-tcl.i686 graphviz-tcl.x86_64 graphviz.x86_64 graphviz-guile.x86_64
为了便于在vim中直接生成doxygen能识别的常用注释，需要添加vim插件的支持：
首先下载vim 插件：
https://vim.sourceforge.io/scripts/script.php?script_id=987
从其中选择 DoxygenToolkit.vim 0.2.13
然后依次执行下面的命令和操作：
cp DoxygenTookkit.vim ~/root/.vim/plugin/
在~/.vimrc最后加入下面几行：
[root@localhost plugin]# tail -f /root/.vimrc
"let Tlist_Auto_Open=1
"let g:vimmake_mode = { 'gcc':'quickfix', 'run':'normal' }
let g:vimmake_mode = { 'gcc' : 'async', 'run' : 'normal' }
let g:doxygenToolkit_authorName="TiShai Hua"
let g:doxygenToolkit_briefTag_funcName="yes"
map <F2>a :DoxAuthor
map <F2>f :Dox
map <F2>b :DoxBlock
map <F2>c O/** */<Left><Left>
这样就可以参考下面的说明来利用Dox/DoxBlock/DoxAuthor来自动生成可被Doxygen理解的注释了：
//// below generated by : DoxAuthor
/**
* @file test.c
* @brief
* @author hongmei
* @version 0.01
* @date 2017-09-21
*/
//// below generated by : 'Dox ' command in vim
/**
* @brief
*
* @param a
* @param b
*
* @return
*/
int test(int a ,int b)
{
int c,i;
//// below generated by : 'DoxBlock' command in vim
/**
* @name
* @{ */
/** @} */
c = i = 1;
a++;
return a;
}
2. 配置设置
可以运行下面的命令来生成doxygen 配置文件：
doxygen -g
接着编辑Doxyfile, 添加对C inline/static/typedef 的支持，实现对目录、文件、函数的递归解析，支持生产引用和被调用的分析图。我主要的设置如下，仅供参考：
[root@localhost]# cat Doxyfile | grep -v "#" | egrep -v "^$" | egrep -v "=$" | grep -v "NO"

3. 文档生成
然后进入上面配置文件设置的INPUT目录，执行“doxygen", 命令执行完成之后，在output制定的目录里面 就可以看到生产了html目录和latex目录。如果需要用HTML看整个代码，可以在IE或者firefox浏览器中打开annotated.html，可以看到所有的代码结构和注释。
