[Doxygen-users] C++ class declared in a function

[Barnes, P. D. <bar...@ll...>]

Hello Folks,

When I have a class declared *inside* a function, the docs for the class and members get merged into the function docs.  Instead I expect the internal class to be documented separately, just a class declared within another class.

Here's a minimal example, declaring an API with an abstract base class, then specializing within a templated function body:

/// Base class with pure virtual function.
class Base
{
  /// Api declaration, including a pure virtual function:
  virtual void PureVirtual (void) = 0;
};  // class Base

/// Make a specialized instance of Base
Base *
MakeSpecialized (void)
{
  /// Specialized class (shouldn't appear in MakeSpecialized)
  class Specialized : public Base
  {
    /// Specialized implementation (shouldn't appear in MakeSpecialized
    virtual void PureVirtual (void) { };
  };
  Specialized s = new Specialized;
  return s;
}  // MakeSpecialized

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Peter
