Eclox: Eclipse code documentation made easy.

Eclox is perfect if you need to add complex code documentation to your projects by using the Eclipse IDE and the Doxygen multi-language documentation tool.

You need to separately install Doxygen in order to use Eclox.

Here are some Screenshots (click to view full-size):

  2. First of all you must create a "Doxyfile":
    Open Eclipse, File > New > Other..., Expand the "Other" group > "Doxyfile", now complete the wizard...

    After that select the doxyfile you have created > Open

    Editing it would be easy since you already worked with Doxygen before, but this time you'll be able to configure almost everything via the Eclox graphic interface.

    Let me know if that works for you.

  4. Well, it's quite a bit I'm not playing with Eclipse anymore (now I'm developing for iPhone/iPad)...
    BUT: You should be able to see an icon (a blue "@" if I remember it well) that, once clicked, will produce the documentation (driven by the doxyfile you edited).
    Let me know if it works.
    Bye
