addon/doxyparse/README.md
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.
