Question

For example:

class Test
{
    /// This var contain Apple class
    void* something;
};

I know that “something” will be pointed to the object of Apple type. How can i force tell that to doxygen (for DOT graphs relations).

Answer 1

It might be a bit heavy handed, but one way would be to conditionally declare it as an Apple* when processing it with doxygen:

class Test
{
    /// This var contain Apple class
#ifdef DOXYGEN_INVOKED
    Apple* something;
#else
    void* something;
#endif
};

You can configure Doxygen to define the DOXYGEN_INVOKED macro by using the PREDEFINED tag.
