{{title|Archives for offline viewing}}

For convenience, several versions of the wiki suitable for offline viewing are available.

===Html book===
This html book is an offline copy of the website with unnecessary UI elements stripped out. Choose this if you just want to access cppreference.com via a browser while without internet connection.

===Raw archive===
This archive is a raw copy created using [https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/ {{tt|wget}}] (GNU Wget). Note that this archive is not useful for viewing as-is, please use the HTML book instead. Note: the utility scripts and a makefile are contained in this package, so it can be used as full upstream source.

===Devhelp book===
[https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Devhelp Devhelp] is a documentation browser for GTK/Gnome.

The book is available as {{tt|cppreference-doc-en-html}} {{tt|deb}} package in the official [https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=cppreference&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all Debian ] and [https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=cppreference&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all Ubuntu] repositories.

For arch users, the package {{tt|cppreference-devhelp}} could be found [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cppreference-devhelp/ here], which can be installed from AUR by tools like {{tt|yaourt}}.

===Qt help book===
{{tt|qch}} is a documentation format for use in the Qt tools such as [https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_Creator QtCreator] or Qt Assistant [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtassistant-index.html v5] / [https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtassistant-index.html v6].

The {{tt|qch}} book below contains a version of the html book, adapted for use with the Qt tools. Search also works.

:'''Note''': Old versions of QtCreator or QtAssistant display the documentation improperly. If you see bad formatting, please update these programs. The oldest versions that display the contents correctly are QtCreator v3.0 and QtAssistant v4.8.6.

The book is available as {{tt|cppreference-doc-en-qch}} {{tt|deb}} package in the official [https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=cppreference&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all Debian ] and [https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=cppreference&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all Ubuntu] repositories.

The book is also provided by AUR package [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cppreference-qt/ cppreference-qt] for Arch Linux users.

===Doxygen tag file===
[https://doxygen.org/ Doxygen] is a tool to automatically generate documentation from source code comments. It supports automatic linking of C++ names to external documentation via [https://www.doxygen.org/manual/external.html tag file] functionality. Two tag files are provided in the "html book" archive mentioned above:
* '''local''': use the {{tt|cppreference-doxygen-local.tag.xml}} file to link to the local "html book" archive at the default install location.
* '''web''': {{tt|cppreference-doxygen-web.tag.xml}} to link directly to the cppreference.com website.

In order to support external cppreference documentation, Doxyfile needs to be modified as follows:
* If the link target is local archive, add the following line:
: {{c|lang=text|1=TAGFILES += "location/of/cppreference-doxygen-local.tag.xml=/location/of/html/book/root/"}}.
* If the link target is cppreference.com, add the following line:
: {{c|lang=text|1=TAGFILES += "location/of/cppreference-doxygen-web.tag.xml=https://en.cppreference.com/w/"}}.

===Manpages===
* [https://github.com/jeaye/stdman stdman]: automatically generated man pages. [https://github.com/jeaye/stdman#Installation Installation] notes are included in the README and updates follow the offline archive releases. Last update: 1 February 2022 (~ 4.7 MB).
* [https://github.com/aitjcize/cppman cppman]: manual pages for Linux/MacOS, with syntax highlighting of example code and hyperlinks between manpages. [https://github.com/aitjcize/cppman#Installation Installation] is available via {{tt|pip/AUR/apt/brew/port}}. The manpages can be generated/cached on-the-fly (online), one page per request, or all available pages can be fetched, for further "offline" browsing.

===Bugs===
All bugs in the offline archives should be reported either to the [https://en.cppreference.com/w/Cppreference_talk:Archives talk page] or to the [https://github.com/p12tic/cppreference-doc/issues issues page] of the cppreference-doc github project.
