muliple Doxyfiles - editing about eclox HOT 6 CLOSED

Currently, you are allowed to create as many doxyfiles as you want in each project, each doxyfile being independent from others. This, perhaps, aswers to your request.

But I'm not sure to understand exactly the request, but I will try to guess. Here is what I think I have understood. You would like to have several doxyfiles, each building documentation for a specific part of a project. And you would like to have somewhere (like a property of the project) a place to tell what doxyfiles are part of the general build set. And you would have an action to launch the build of that general build set and each doxyfile of the set would then build.

Could confirm this corresponds to you request ?

Ok to describe in detail what I mean:
Steps:

1. open C/C++ perspective
2. expand the C project
3. there are two doxygen configuration files
   (Doxyfile Doxyfile2)
4. I select Doxyfile2 and double click
   Result:
   Eclipse opens a text view.
   Expected result:
   Eclipse opens a eclox view.

(Eclipse also shows Doxyfile and Doxyfile2 with different icons)

Well, now I see. By now, the doxyfile editor automatically opens on files named either "Doxyfile" or "*.Doxyfile". As you can see "Doxyfile2" doesn't match any pattern and Eclipse uses the fallback default that is the simple text editor.

You should now change the name of doxyfiles that don't open with the right editor...

Can you make the pattern configurable?
Thanks.

Well, why not. I don't know if it is technically possible, but I will have a look.

Stay tuned...

It already works: just to to Preferences -> General -> Editors -> File Associations and add File type: Doxyfile2. Then just add as "associated editors" the "Doxyfile Editor"
