##Doxygen Doxygen is the de facto standard tool for generating documentation from annotated C++ sources, but it also supports other popular programming languages such as C, Objective-C, C#, PHP, Java, Python, IDL (Corba, Microsoft, and UNO/OpenOffice flavors), Fortran, VHDL, Tcl, and to some extent D.

##Documentation (Doxygen) support in Visual Studio Team Services Documentation (Doxygen) extension will help you in generating and viewing project documentation in Visual Studio Team Services. This extension contains the following functionalities:

  • A new Build task to generate documentation
  • A new "Documentation" hub under Code to view the documentation

####Build task The task, named Documentation (Doxygen), uses Doxygen and PdfLatex tools installed on the Build Agent machine to generate the documentation from source code in your repository. On successful generation, the task uploads the file as Build artifact so that it can be downloaded at later time.

#####Pre-requisites

  • Doxygen tool should be installed on the Build agent machine (download)
  • PdfLatex tool should be installed on the Build agent machine.
    • windows installer
    • linux installer

####Documentation hub The "Documentation" hub under "Code" can be used to view the documentation. In this page, there are drop-down options to select a build definition and a build. The page will render documentation from selected build(if available).

####Known Issues

  • We have heard about extension not working properly with TFS 2015 (OnPrem) server.
  • The Documentation hub doesn't loads in Internet Explorer/Microsoft Edge. (Please use Google Chrome for now)
