Doxygen to DoxyPress...
summary
DoxyPress is a fork of Doxygen rebuilt by porting a C++98 codebase to C++11, swapping Qt 1.9 pointer containers for CopperSpice value types and shared_ptrs, fixing innumerable memory leaks and HTML bugs and reducing HTML generation quirks (tables, stray divs, auto-brief). The project rewrites the wizard to use JSON project files, backports useful doxygen changes, cuts API generation time from ~15 to ~5 minutes for CopperSpice, endures 25,000 lines of compile errors during the switch, and plans to use libclang for parsing.
