How to count todo list in doxygen ?

I'm going to display the count of todo lists on MainPage. Is there any special command for getting information of todo list ? 

/*! \mainpage My Personal Index Page
 *
 * ToDo List = 100 
 * Bug List = 30
 *
 * etc...
 */
Solution

  • In doxygen there are not statistics available for the number of \todo commands used. A way to accomplish it would be externally get the number of \todo e.g. in case of *nix (or windows extended with the required commands through Cygwin or GNU) by means of grep -c -w "[\\@]todo" -r <directory>. The output can be redirected into an alias (see the doxygen configuration file (Doxyfile), tag ALIASES) or an input file (to be used as a sperate file or by means of \includedoc).
