I can understand not wanting to use STL, which, despite the name, was never really standardized, however the standard C++ library which is part of the C++ standard definition should be portable and consistent. Of course you noted that, though I thought stdc++ was part of the standard before rev 11. Boost I can certainly understand leaving out. I'm definitely not a fan of adding additional dependencies that are outside of a standard build environment (whatever that means :-).
I had assumed that Doxygen had predated stdc++, but thought maybe there might be some momentum to "update" it. > Also STL uses exceptions whereas doxygen doesn't.

I disagree with the assertion that the standard C++ library (of which STL is a predecessor) is not portable, but it's your baby. It's not so much that qtools doesn't have things that are unavailable, for me it's partially a matter of familiarity. Maybe even wholly. I find qtools confusing with its multiple implementations of string classes and so on. Qtools does a lot of the same stuff as stdc++ but I find the stdc++ implementation cleaner and more thorough, personally. I can certainly use the qtools, though it'd be helpful to get some clarification as to when to use "QGString" and when to use "QCString". The documentation of the former is just "This is an alternative implementation of QCString", which isn't terribly helpful. Also if you happen to have an emacs style setting that you can pass on so I can keep the formatting consistent, I'd appreciate it :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ Doxygen-develop mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/doxygen-develop
