DoxyGen does not have a full parser in it, so any prototype that use a macro in the return type declaration is too complex for scandoc. Those functions require a <code>deffunc</code>. An example (using > rather than >):</p> <div class="example"><p><code> /**<br /> * return the final element of the pathname<br /> * @param pathname The path to get the final element of<br /> * @return the final element of the path<br /> * @tip Examples:<br /> * <pre><br /> * "/foo/bar/gum" -> "gum"<br /> * "/foo/bar/gum/" -> ""<br /> * "gum" -> "gum"<br /> * "wi\\n32\\stuff" -> "stuff"<br /> * </pre><br /> * @deffunc const char * ap_filename_of_pathname(const char *pathname)<br /> */ </code></p></div> <p>At the top of the header file, always include:</p> <div class="example"><p><code> /**<br /> * @package Name of library header<br /> */ </code></p></div> <p>Doxygen uses a new HTML file for each package. The HTML files are named {Name_of_library_header}.html, so try to be concise with your names.</p> <p>For a further discussion of the possibilities please refer to <a href="http://www.doxygen.org/">the Doxygen site</a>.</p> </div></div> <div class="bottomlang"> <p><span>Available Languages: </span><a href="../en/developer/documenting.html" title="English"> en </a></p> </div><div id="footer"> <p class="apache">Copyright 1999-2004 The Apache Software Foundation.<br />Licensed under the <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0">Apache License, Version 2.0</a>.</p> <p class="menu"><a href="../mod/">Modules</a> | <a href="../mod/directives.html">Directives</a> | <a href="../faq/">FAQ</a> | <a href="../glossary.html">Glossary</a> | <a href="../sitemap.html">Sitemap</a></p></div> </body></html>
