Doxygen does not show how document member functions (including constructors) are called from other classes.?

Question

Doxygen does not show how document member functions (including constructors) are called from other classes.

I installed "automatic documentation" with the EXTRACT_ALL option. I set the CALL_GRAPH parameter to receive call references. I also had graphwiz / dot (output) options enabled.

Here is a list of my choices:

Answer 1

Change

 SOURCE_BROWSER = NO INLINE_SOURCES = NO STRIP_CODE_COMMENTS = YES REFERENCED_BY_RELATION = NO REFERENCES_RELATION = NO REFERENCES_LINK_SOURCE = YES USE_HTAGS = NO VERBATIM_HEADERS = YES 

For

 SOURCE_BROWSER = YES INLINE_SOURCES = YES STRIP_CODE_COMMENTS = YES REFERENCED_BY_RELATION = YES REFERENCES_RELATION = YES REFERENCES_LINK_SOURCE = YES USE_HTAGS = NO VERBATIM_HEADERS = YES 

---

The main ones that you really need to change are REFERENCED_BY_RELATION and REFERENCES_RELATION.

Here is the documentation for these two options:

REFERENCED_BY_RELATION If the REFERENCED_BY_RELATION tag is set to YES, then for every documented function, all documented functions that reference it will be listed.

REFERENCES_RELATION If the REFERENCES_RELATION tag is set to YES, then for each documented function, all documented objects called / used by this function will be listed.
