[Doxygen-users] Relationship between Fortran classes in different modules

[Ronan V. <ron...@ec...>]

Hi,

I am using version 1.8.8. With the simple code below, doxygen is not able to relate correctly type_B as a child of type_A as soon as both are declared in different modules.

type_A and type_B are referred as A::type_A and B::type_B respectively in the generated documentation. B::Type_B is set as a child of an unknown class Type_A, not the one whose definition is imported from the module.

Is there a way to fix this ?

Using “!> @extends A::type_A “ forces the correct relationship but does not remove the erroneous one. This create a documentation for Type_B with two parents Type_A and A::Type_A.

Thanks,
Ronan
