Doxygen Snippet Generator

Doxygen Snippet Generator is a Visual Studio Code extension that helps developers easily create and manage code snippets formatted for Doxygen documentation.

✨ Features

• Right-click any selected code and generate a Doxygen-compatible snippet.
• Automatically adds the snippet to snippets/snippet.c.
• Automatically updates snippets/copy_from_here.c with the proper Doxygen comment block for quick copy-paste.
• Prevents duplicate snippet names.
• Seamless integration with your existing workspace.

📦 Usage

1. Select Code
   Highlight any code you want to turn into a Doxygen snippet.

2. Right Click → Add to Doxygen Snippet
   Or open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P) and run Add to Doxygen Snippet.

3. Name Your Snippet
   Enter a unique snippet name when prompted.

4. Files Updated Automatically

   • snippets/snippet.c: Stores the actual code snippet.
   • snippets/copy_from_here.c: Contains a ready-to-copy Doxygen snippet reference like:

     /**
     * \snippet snippets/snippet.c YOUR_SNIPPET_NAME
     */
     

🧠 Why Use This?

Doxygen Snippet Generator streamlines the process of creating, referencing, and managing code snippets in large C/C++ codebases. It improves documentation consistency and helps keep snippets organized.
