c++ - Doxygen parse const member function incorrectly when const at another line -

i've tried searching stackoverflow , users mailing list in official website not found useful problem, there lot of results unrelated...

doxygen used version 1.8.5.

i prefer style member function declaration this, let's call const-at-another-line style.

returntype functionname() const; 

i know people use all-in-same-line style,

returntype functionname() const; 

or return-type-at-another-line style

returntype functionname() const; 

for both all-in-same-line style , return-type-at-another-line style, doxygen can parse correctly.

however document of const-at-another-line style results in member data called "const" , type returntype.

class signal : public interface {     bool     hassignal()     const; }; 

document shows class signal has public attributes

bool const 

and detailed documentation in member data documentations shows

bool signal::const 

i've tried these cases, pure virtual function:

bool hassignal() const =0; 

result in

bool signal::const =0 

and c++11 final/override keyword: (i'm not expecting doxygen support c++11 syntax yet, comparison)

bool hassignal() const override; 

results in public attributes

bool const override 

which "const" link member data documentation in class interface

virtual bool interface::const = 0 

and "override" link member data documentation in class signal

bool const signal::override 

my problem is: there config in doxygen missed can parse/document const member function using const-at-another-line style correctly? or can modify style fit doxygen document purpose?

looks has been fixed in version 1.8.6 , later (note version 1.8.5 released in august 2013 rather old). latest version of writing 1.8.9.1.
