Description David Haney 2015-06-23 23:30:46 UTC
In the following code, I would expect each of paragraph to have the same content:

/**
 *
 * `">"`
 *
 * \c ">"
 *
 * <tt>">"</tt>
 *
 */
class X {}

In each case, I would expect the output to be ">", however in the case of the markdown backtick markup, "\>" is generated.
Comment 1 Dimitri van Heesch 2016-05-26 20:03:25 UTC
Confirmed. Should be fixed in the next GIT update.
Comment 2 Dimitri van Heesch 2016-09-05 13:45:59 UTC
This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.12. 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 (preferably in the form of a self-contained example).
