Like Jakob says, looking at the doxygen source code to try and understand problems with your configuration is the wrong thing to do. Instead check the settings in your own doxygen configuration file against the manual. This might be a good place to start: http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/config.html#cfg_hide_in_body_docs
And make sure your source files are correctly tagged with the http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/commands.html#cmdfile command so they are actually included. A simple example of where your configuration file differs from the default, telling us what version of doxygen you're using and providing brief example code showing your problem are all basic things you should provide if you want help.

Hi Jakob, I merely want to look for some examples on how to put the document in *.cpp file but not in *.h file as I am not able to let doxygen to show comment from *.cpp files. I have tried many options, but I still don't find which option should be used in Doxyfile. To look for possible solutions to the above question, I went ahead to check the comments in doxygen source code. I surprisingly find the same comment appear in both *.cpp and *.h files which seems weird to me. So my second question is why duplicated comments need to put in both *.cpp and *.h files. Are my questions clear to you now? -- Regards, Peng ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
