Dependency graph

[nim65s]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to generate a graph of all the dependencies between gepetto's packages, and I am using the graph generated by hpp-doc to do some checks.

I found a difference: hpp-manipulation depends on hpp-pinocchio in http://homepages.laas.fr/gsaurel/graph.svg and not in the graph generated by hpp-doc.

So either,

• this line is useless : https://github.com/humanoid-path-planner/hpp-manipulation/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L56
• we don't care, because hpp-manipulation depends on hpp-constraints, which depends on hpp-pinocchio ; but in this case we should remove other arrows in our graphs / dependencies in our packages.

What do you think ?

Pushing this to its extreme, the only dependency left would be hpp-core...

I would prefer to keep the explicit dependence to hpp-pinocchio, for clarity. However, it isn't a strong preference.

The directive ADD_DOC_DEPENDENCY is necessary to build html links to hpp-pinocchio classes in hpp-manipulation documentation. It does not however add hpp-pinocchio in the "Requires" filed of hpp-manipulation.pc. That is why the dependency does not appear in the graph generated by hpp-doc.

I think that this behaviour is desirable.

understood, thanks ! :)
