Generating Complete C++ Inheritance Diagrams Across Multiple Projects with Doxygen

Keeping clear and thorough documentation requires an understanding of how Doxygen handles inheritance across several C++ projects. Base classes are frequently identified when utilizing tag files, although derived classes from other projects might not be present. By properly configuring, combining tag files, and turning on extra settings like HAVE_DOT, this problem can be resolved. By putting these tactics into practice, developers can more easily navigate large systems because the entire class hierarchy is displayed accurately.
