Files for reproducing the bug

In the example below, doxygen omits the documentation of
all class members of class B. It correctly includes the documentation, if

1. either a space is inserted between the two right double brackets
   of type definition StrangeType; or
2. the (single) member of class A is commented out.

Thus, the parser somehow get's confused by multiple angle brackets.
Note that the two consecutive right angle brackets here are allowed
according to C++11. The dependence on the unrelated definition
of class A is strange, anyway.

//! \file myclass.h

#pragma once

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Class A
//
//! \brief First class.
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

class A
{
static const size_t LargeValue = ~static_cast<size_t>(0);
};

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Class B
//
//! \brief Second class.
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

class B
{
public:
//! Template type with double right angle brackets.
typedef TemplateType1<TemplateType2<T, U>> StrangeType;

//! Member that doxygen refuses to document.
B();

//! Member that doxygen refuses to document.
void undocumentedMemberFunctioncompare();
};
