The Doxygen Visual Basic filter is an awk script that converts Classic VB and VB.NET code syntax to a C#-like syntax, so it can be read and understood by Doxygen.
It is inspired by the Visual Basic (classic) filter script written by Mathias Henze. More information about his script can be found in the Helper Tools section on the Doxygen homepage.
##How does it work
Doxygen can preprocess all sources using a source filter. A source filter must be executable, accept the name of the source path as last parameter and print the resulting source to STDOUT. See the Doxygen manual for more information.
The vbfilter.awk script is a AWK script, which can be executed using gawk. Gawk reads the source files line by line, applies vbfilter.awk on it and passes the output to doxygen.
