Custom tags with Doxygen

Question

I am trying to figure out if there is a way to create a custom tag using Doxygen. I did find the ALIAS configuration file option but that does not do exactly what I need. Ba

Answer 1

The generalization of \bug and \todo is \xrefitem.

The solution I suggest is:

• in Doxyfile:

  ALIASES += "req=\xrefitem req \"Requirement\" \"Requirements\" "
  

• in documented code:

  /// \req #42 - The system shall work in any situation
