[Doxygen-users] linkage macros on non-classes

[Kenneth P. <sh...@se...>]

With class declarations in headers, doxygen correctly strips linkage macros 
before presenting them in documentation. But with non-classes (functions, 
constants, and variables) the macro is shown. Example:

extern MOTION_API const std::string axisNameStageX;

In the output HTML for Axis.h I see:

MOTION_API const std::string 	axisNameStageX

(Under Windows, the client sees the macro defined as __declspec(dllimport).)

Is this a bug? It certainly seems inconsistent.
