Doxygen documentation

Last modified: 13 February 2023

Doxygen-style comments can be placed across the source code and used for generating full-fledged documentation in various formats. In case you have a project documented this way, you can easily run Doxygen tool from the built-in terminal in CLion to get the documentation. Besides, CLion enables you to get more value out of the Doxygen comments inside the IDE itself.

CLion includes the information from the Doxygen-styled comments into the Quick Documentation popup :
