Cannot link symbols from doxytag file in comments
Last modified: 2011-03-26 12:48:18 UTC
Symbols defined in a doxytag file are not linked properly when referenced from the context of a comment, though they *are* properly linked when referenced from within normal code. For example, a reference like this: /** The symbol ::Lib_variable is defined in a doxytag. */ fails with a warning: explicit link request to 'Lib_variable' could not be resolved **Warning** Attached script destroys and re-creates the directory doxytag_bug. Attached is a script that creates a complete example to demonstrate the problem. Note that the comment for App_function fails to link to symbols from Lib, yet the body of App_function successfully links to these same symbols. Locally defined symbols are successfully linked both in the comments and in the function body. Operating system: Fedora 11, Ubuntu 10.10 Doxygen version: 1.7.3 release
