Detailed Description
Abstract interface for outline parsers.
By implementing the methods of this interface one can add a new language parser to doxygen. The parser implementation can make use of the comment block parser to parse the contents of special comment blocks.
Member Function Documentation
◆ needsPreprocessing()
|
pure virtual |
Returns TRUE if the language identified by extension needs the C preprocessor to be run before feed the result to the input parser.
- See also
- parseInput()
Implemented in NullOutlineParser, MarkdownOutlineParser, PythonOutlineParser, COutlineParser, VHDLOutlineParser, FortranOutlineParser, and LexOutlineParser.
◆ parseInput()
|
pure virtual |
Parses a single input file with the goal to build an Entry tree.
- Parameters
-
[in] fileName The full name of the file. [in] fileBuf The contents of the file (zero terminated). [in,out] root The root of the tree of Entry *nodes representing the information extracted from the file. [in] clangParser The clang translation unit parser object or nullptr if disabled.
Implemented in NullOutlineParser, MarkdownOutlineParser, PythonOutlineParser, COutlineParser, FortranOutlineParser, LexOutlineParser, and VHDLOutlineParser.
◆ parsePrototype()
|
pure virtual |
Callback function called by the comment block scanner.
It provides a string text containing the prototype of a function or variable. The parser should parse this and store the information in the Entry node that corresponds with the node for which the comment block parser was invoked.
Implemented in NullOutlineParser, MarkdownOutlineParser, PythonOutlineParser, COutlineParser, VHDLOutlineParser, FortranOutlineParser, and LexOutlineParser.
