Use custom documentation in Qt Creator help mode

Question

Qt Creator has a convenient function that I can choose for any Qt class, press F1 and the Qt documentation for that class will open (see the second link below).

Now I would like to have the same functionality for my own classes that are already registered with Doxygen.

I found a very short IMHO documentation for the Qt help system and Qt Creator help mode . I also found a menu in Qt Creator where I could add additional help files, but I did not find anything on how to pinpoint my Doxygen, and then pack it into the Qt help file so that Qt Creator finds the correct link anchors, etc. d.

Has anyone done this before and can help me here?

Answer 1

Set these doxyfile variables:

 GENERATE_QHP = YES QCH_FILE = <project>.qch QHP_NAMESPACE = <namespace> QHP_VIRTUAL_FOLDER = doc QHG_LOCATION = qhelpgenerator 

The brackets in <> can be whatever you want.
