Description Aaron 2011-04-01 17:40:24 UTC 
I have tried to place 2 paths in the MSCFILE_DIRS property and it appears only the first path is used.

I have tried both of the following formats in my doxyfile:

MSCFILE_DIRS = path1 \
               path2

MSCFILE_DIRS = path1
MSCFILE_DIRS += path2

My corresponding \mscfile tags then only find the files located under path1.


Although I have not tried it, I suspect the DOTFILE_DIRS property may have the same limitation, however the comments indicate they should support more than one directory.

'The MSCFILE_DIRS tag can be used to specify one or more directories that contain dot files that are included in the documentation (see the \dotfile command).'
'The DOTFILE_DIRS tag can be used to specify one or more directories that contain dot files that are included in the documentation (see the \dotfile command).'

Hi Aaron,

Turns out to be a copy-paste error:
In src/doxygen.cpp the following is used to iterate over the directories:

  s=mscFileList.first();
  while (s)
  {
    readFileOrDirectory(s,0,Doxygen::mscFileNameDict,0,0,
                        0,0,0,
                        alwaysRecursive);
    s=dotFileList.next();
  }

the dotFileList.next() should have been mscFileList.next()

Should be fixed in the next subversion update.
Comment 2 Dimitri van Heesch 2011-08-14 14:05:21 UTC 
This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.7.5. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information
that you think can be relevant.
