sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(dirname, "breathe"))
breathe_projects = { "firmware_components": os.path.join(dirname, "doxyxml") }
breathe_default_project = "firmware_components"

extensions = [
    'sphinx.ext.autodoc',
    'sphinx.ext.doctest',

project = 'firmware_components'

Looks like breathe_projects and breathe_default_project are getting populated correctly; it's not clear to me what exactly that function does. Any guidance welcome.

Happens on master and 4.0.0.

Do you have Breathe in the project's directory? Since Sphinx processes .rst files in project's subdirectories it might get to autofile.rst from Breathe:

   .. autodoxygenfile:: auto_class.h
      :source: auto

causing the error.

If this is the case an easy solution is to exclude the directories you don't want to be processed:

exclude_patterns = ['breathe/*']

Oh duh, that was it of course. Thanks!
