Create CHM file using Doxygen

Hello everybody!

I have developed an ASP.NET Web site using Visual Studio 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.
I commented all methods, functions, classes and properties using ///<summary>

Now I need to create the documentation of that code. I'm trying to use Doxygen which I think is pretty cool.

Now I need to make a CHM file using Doxygen.

Do anyone know how to achieve this?

In advance, many thanks.

PS: I already tried using SandCastle but it haves a lot of problems with web-sites.
PS2: I was able to create an XML Documentation file using SandCastle. How do I use that XML to create a CHM file? App-Code.y714fmxm.xml

Hello

look at your doxygen control file. I have

...
# If the GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to YES, additional index files
# will be generated that can be used as input for tools like the
# Microsoft HTML help workshop to generate a compiled HTML help file (.chm)
# of the generated HTML documentation.

GENERATE_HTMLHELP = YES

# If the GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to YES, the CHM_FILE tag can
# be used to specify the file name of the resulting .chm file. You
# can add a path in front of the file if the result should not be
# written to the html output directory.

CHM_FILE = CUSBkeyCS.chm

# If the GENERATE_HTMLHELP tag is set to YES, the HHC_LOCATION tag can
# be used to specify the location (absolute path including file name) of
# the HTML help compiler (hhc.exe). If non-empty doxygen will try to run
# the HTML help compiler on the generated index.hhp.

HHC_LOCATION = "/home/hgode/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/HTML Help Workshop/hhc.exe"
...

You can also access this in doxygen wizard gui: see EXPERT-HTML-Generate_HTMLHELP and tick the checkbox. For CHM_FILE select a folder and file name for the chm file to generate. In HHC help enter the path to the html workshop HHC application on your windows system.
