Description Neil Faiman 2013-06-26 15:20:10 UTC
Created attachment 247837 [details]
Zip file containing configuration file and documented C++ source file

In the source code, I have 


    /// @copydoc A::operator--()
    B& operator--() { return *this; }

Doxygen apparently translates the -- into an HTML – entity during the scan, because this error appears in the log:

doxybug.cpp:23: Warning: target A::operator& of \copydoc command not found

Then the documentation for operator-- is badly messed up. It ends up looking something like this:

B& B::operator--	(	)		
ndash;()

ndash;()
Comment 1 Dimitri van Heesch 2013-07-02 14:36:34 UTC
Confirmed. Should be fixed in the next GIT update.
Comment 2 Dimitri van Heesch 2013-08-23 15:04:51 UTC
This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.5. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information
that you think can be relevant.
