[Doxygen-users] Warning of mismatched arguments

[Arthur S. <asc...@at...>]

I can't figure out what is wrong with the following:

 /** 
 * @fn virtual SlipDatum& SlipOp::copy(const SlipDatum& X) const
 * @copydoc SlipDatum::copy()
 * @see SlipDatum::copy()
 * @param[in] X (SlipDatum&) cell to be copied
 */

and

      virtual SlipDatum& copy(const SlipDatum& X) const;  


The code compiles and executes, so the code is ok. The message is:

SlipOp.h:707: warning: argument 'SlipDatum' of command @param is not found in the argument list of SlipOp::copy(const SlipDatum &X) const


The error cascades to all functions which override the virtual function. The @copydoc object has no argument and a @param statement is supplied here to account for the added argument. However most of the methods in this class have the same issue, the @copydoc object has one fewer argument than the implementation in this class, but there is no diagnostic message issued.


Have I done something wrong?
