Description Claire Chardiny 2007-09-13 13:59:23 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
@copydoc of operator documentation generated >, < and & characters in the XML output. The XML files ar not valid and combine.xslt fails.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Write a copydoc to an operator containing <, > or & in its name
Example:
@copydoc operator<<(ostream&,IloAlgorithm::Status)
2. Generate XML output
3. Launch Doxygen combine.xslt stylesheet on the output


Actual results:
Doxygen generates:
<copydoc link="operator<<(ostream&,IloAlgorithm::Status)">
and combine.xslt fails

Expected results:
Doxygen should generate a valid XML file with:
<copydoc link="operator&lt;&lt;(ostream&amp;,IloAlgorithm::Status)">
and combine.xslt should execute successfully.

Does this happen every time?
Yes

Confirmed. Should be fixed in the next CVS update.
Comment 2 Dimitri van Heesch 2007-10-27 09:14:27 UTC 
This bug had the status ASSIGNED, which means that the problem should be fixed in doxygen version 1.5.4 which has just been released. If this is not the case then please reopen the bug (and provide additional information if needed).
