Doxygen not documenting main function in main.cpp
Make sure HIDE_IN_BODY_DOCS
is set to NO
and use something like this:
/// \file
/// \brief Main function
/// \param argc An integer argument count of the command line arguments
/// \param argv An argument vector of the command line arguments
/// \return an integer 0 upon exit success
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
/// Comments I would like to be documented in as well
return 0;
}
This is because you are documenting a global object which doxygen, by default, does not document. From the doxygen manual (emphasis mine):
To document a member of a C++ class, you must also document the class itself. The same holds for namespaces. To document a global C function, typedef, enum or preprocessor definition you must first document the file that contains it (usually this will be a header file, because that file contains the information that is exported to other source files).
Let's repeat that, because it is often overlooked: to document global objects (functions, typedefs, enum, macros, etc), you must document the file in which they are defined. In other words, there must at least be a
/*! \file */
or a
/** @file */
line in this file.
So try adding one of the above two lines to your main.cpp file.
