Hi Dan, long time no see!

What specifically are you looking to do?
It has been quite a while since I reviewed
our Doxygen-based source code, so I am
not up on the latest, but the Doxygen control
file can do some amazing stuff.  Is there something
specifically that is an issue?

I'll be the first to admit that I'm no expert in Doxygen, but I have a list of things that I can't get it to do.

However, it is the general documentation style I was thinking about. In this world of interactive Ajax-style browser apps it seems arcane to be ploughing through lists of types and members. I was wondering if there was some tool that would have good search facilities, good visualization, etc. I guess that is a whole new project...

I ran our class library code through Doxygen, with some tweaks to the default configuration, and have uploaded the results here [1].

Sure would be good to get rid of the package visible types/members etc.

I guess it doesn't understand annotations, non of them are documented.

The output is really messy IMHO, take a look at [2] and try to parse it!

Hopefully I'm missing a trick, 'cos I don't really like this style at all.
