How can Doxygen exclude a C++ class?

Question

I want to exclude a class from documentation in Doxygen. Usually these classes are in files named the same, but there are many times when they are included inside other class definitions. This is mainly for classes starting with "_" or "Private".

Thanks, Kris

Answer 1

You can use the \cond tag. Before the class definition, add:

\cond HIDDEN_SYMBOLS

and after the class definition add:

\endcond

Unless you define HIDDEN_SYMBOLS in your doxyfile, the contents between the \cond and \endcond tags will not be documented. You can replace HIDDEN_SYMBOLS with whatever you like.

Answer 2

EXCLUDE_SYMBOLS may be my answer.
