Doxygen problems with preprocessor

[dj51_Shura]

Hi everybody! I'm writing a library with some files, and, of course, I have to use the C preprocessor sentences to avoid problems with functions-redefinitions. The gcc compiler works perfect with the code, really cool, but the Doxygen's preprocessor have some problems.

I will try to explain it as good as I can. I have three headers with *utilities* for the library. Boolean, strings and maths. Each one has a #ifndef and #endif sentence like this:

Code: Select all

#ifndef __STRUTILITIES_H
#define __STRUTILITIES_H

// #include <string.h>

// char * strenc( /* blah blah blah */ );

/* blah blah blah, blah blah blah */

#endif

The inclusion of those headers (strutilities.h, boolean.h and mutilities.h) is managed by the library-main-header, ioutilib.h, which also uses #ifndef and #endif sentences...

Code: Select all

#ifndef __IOUTILIB_L
#define __IOUTILIB_L

#include <boolean.h>
#include <strutilities.h>
#include <mutilities.h>

/* Include the File Input/Output Header */
#include <ioutilities.h>

/* Include the Ini File Parser Header*/
#include <iniutilities.h>

/* Include the db-utils header */
#include <dbutils.h>

#endif

Ok. But, what happens with the last three headers? Those are compound-headers, because they uses the functions defined in the utilities-headers (the three first). They have #ifndef and #endif sentences to avoid problems if the utilities-headers are not included. This is an example:

Code: Select all

#ifdef __IOUTILIB_L && __STRUTILITIES_H

#ifndef __IOUTILITIES_H
#define __IOUTILITIES_H

/* Code and functions */

#endif

The ioutilities.h header only "works" if the strutilities.h header is included. And, if the header is already included, not re-definition. Simple...

But, the problem, is that Doxygen doesn't keep the '__STRUTILITIES_H' macro defined in strutilities.h the first time it's included. And, because of that, Doxygen cannot work and doesn't produce documentation for ioutilities.h, iniutilities.h, dbutils.h... etc...

Can anybody help me? I have tested out the options of the Preprocessor section of the Doxywizard (:3) but just doesn't seems to work.
