[Doxygen-users] Fortran issues (reiterated)

[Petr P. <pet...@se...>]

Hi all,

let me reiterate on my two issues with Doxygen (1.8.9.1) and Fortran.

#1. Preserving name case -- I undestand the code change is not trivial. 
I have been able to partially resolve this by tweaking the HTML output 
with jQuery to uppercase what I need. But I still have to write #var or 
func() in lowercase (in comment blocks), because #VAR or FUNC() in 
uppercase does not create a valid link, which result in an 
inconsistency. I don't understand why function names are 
case-insensitive and references are not. Maybe changing the auto-linking 
to ignore the case would be better?

On the other hand, C and Java are both case-sensitive, so how come 
Doxygen does not keep the case in the first place? :)

#2. Documenting functions after declaration (inside function) -- I would 
like to put the whole comment block right after SUBROUTINE FOO(A,B,C) 
using !<. I have found that so far the only (unsatisfactory) working 
solution is to put a one-line comment !> *before* the declaration 
(serves as a brief description) and put the rest of the comment block !> 
inside the function *after* any function arguments. I tried to put the 
whole block inside and start it with !> @fn FOO(A,B,C) but that did not 
work. Is there a way to request this feature?

Best regards,

Petr
