This page explains how to interpret the graphs that are generated by doxygen.
-
Consider the following example:
-
-
class Invisible { };
-
-
-
class Truncated : public Invisible { };
-
-
-
class Undocumented { };
-
-
-
class PublicBase : public Truncated { };
-
-
-
template<class T> class Templ { };
-
-
-
class ProtectedBase { };
-
-
-
class PrivateBase { };
-
-
-
class Used { };
-
-
-
class Inherited : public PublicBase,
-
protected ProtectedBase,
-
private PrivateBase,
-
public Undocumented,
-
public Templ<int>
-
{
-
private:
-
Used *m_usedClass;
-
};
-
This will result in the following graph:
-
-
-
-The boxes in the above graph have the following meaning:
-
--
-A filled gray box represents the struct or class for which the graph is generated.
--
-A box with a black border denotes a documented struct or class.
--
-A box with a grey border denotes an undocumented struct or class.
--
-A box with a red border denotes a documented struct or class forwhich not all inheritance/containment relations are shown. A graph is truncated if it does not fit within the specified boundaries.
-
-
The arrows have the following meaning:
-
--
-A dark blue arrow is used to visualize a public inheritance relation between two classes.
--
-A dark green arrow is used for protected inheritance.
--
-A dark red arrow is used for private inheritance.
--
-A purple dashed arrow is used if a class is contained or used by another class. The arrow is labeled with the variable(s) through which the pointed class or struct is accessible.
--
-A yellow dashed arrow denotes a relation between a template instance and the template class it was instantiated from. The arrow is labeled with the template parameters of the instance.
