Doxyparse

This directory contains an "source parsing engine" based on doxyapp code.

Doxyparse modifies the default output of Doxygen and dumps the dependencies among code elements in a YAML format, instead of output it in a human-readable format, as Doxygen does Doxyparse's output is intended to produce a machine-readable output.

Doxyparse has been used in many software engineering research (as a source-code static analysis tool) regards on software metrics, quality metrics and so on, Doxyparse was first used by the Analizo toolkit, a suite of source code analysis tools, aimed at being language-independent and extensible, able to extract and calculate a fair number of source code metrics, generate dependency graphs, and other software evolution analysis.

release

  • ensure analizo testsuite passing on newer doxyparse version
  • update debian/changelog, commit, push
  • create git tag, push to github analizo/doxyparse
  • build on amd64 and i386 archs, upload tar.gz to github
    • tar -zcf doxyparse_<VERSION>_amd64.tar.gz -C bin/ doxyparse
    • tar -zcf doxyparse_<VERSION>_i386.tar.gz -C bin/ doxyparse
  • build debian packages for amd64 and i386, update analizo.org repository
    • (see analizo.github.io/README.md file for updating repository instructions)
    • upload the deb files to github release tag also
  • check if a alien-doxyparse release is necessary and do it on cpan
