Please describe the problem:
When documented class is defined inside of conditional statement, doxygen freezes when parsing this source file. This bug is probably related to bug # 549674.

Steps to reproduce:

1. svn co https://svn.cakephp.org/repo/branches/1.2.x.x
2. try to generate documentation with doxygen 1.5.8

Actual results:
Following files are causing doxygen freeze (no coredump) when parsing them (links points to line numbers with conditional statements - when these if() conditions are removed, docs are generated properly):
https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/branches/1.2.x.x/cake/libs/model/behaviors/translate.php#L499
https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/branches/1.2.x.x/cake/tests/cases/libs/error.test.php#L99
https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/branches/1.2.x.x/cake/tests/cases/libs/model/datasources/dbo/dbo_adodb.test.php#L156
https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/branches/1.2.x.x/cake/tests/cases/libs/controller/component.test.php#L29
https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/branches/1.2.x.x/cake/tests/cases/libs/controller/controller.test.php#L36

Expected results:

Does this happen every time?
Happens every time.

I tried to downgrade doxygen port and this bug exists also in versions 1.5.7.1, 1.5.7, 1.5.6_1 and 1.5.6. Doxygen version 1.5.5 works ok.

Confirmed.

You can work around the issue by putting

// stop parsing if we don't make progress
if (parseMore && position==inputPosition) parseMore=FALSE;

before

if (parseMore) position=inputPosition; else position=0;

in function parseCommentBlock() in commentscan.l

The exact reason why the comment parser gets stuck is not yet clear to me.

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.6.2. Please verify if this is indeed the case and reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed (include any additional information that you
think can be relevant).
