Get class hierarchy dot file from doxygen


Doxygen generates a nice class hierarchy for my project using graphviz. But I now want to add manual annotations to that graph. For that I need to edit the DOT file. However doxygen doesn't seem to output that file anywhere. It only outputs a .map file and the .png image.

How do I get doxygen to give me the dot file? I checked their documentation, but couldn't find any way to achieve it. Surely doxygen has to produce the dot file at some stage?


Solution

  • If you set DOT_CLEANUP to NO in doxygen's configuration file, doxygen will not remove the .dot files.
