phpDocumentator afaik is still under heavy development.

Last time I tried to use it on TYPO3-sources has been quite a while. 
While it has gotten better I wasn't ever able to use it on a full 
TYPO3-Source-Tree since it kicked me with memory and other problems.

my conclusion:
* doxygen is quite easy to use and does a nice job without problems.
* using phpDocumentator needs to be investigated with recent versions 
again and might involve some more work.

Cheers,
Peter

If somebody is successfully using phpDocumentator with TYPO3 I'd be very 
interested in a three line "howto", thx!
