I have two files containg the same code (this is an exstrakt of orig sourceto spot the error)

file a.c and b.c
both contains this

static void SetSysClock(void);

running doxygen on those, makes doxygen crash, when generating xml for a.c, with no error reporting.

added the used doxyfile as atachment

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Can you get us a stack trace?

http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/manual/trouble.html#bug_reports

If you are using a *nix platform, you should be able to get a stacktrace using gdb. This helps us compare stacktraces so that we can figure out what caused the crash, and how to best fix it.

Has anyone tested my exsample?

Testcase

I was able to reproduce this bug using the attached example on Windows. According to the stacktrace, doxygen appears to crash somewhere within the Windows libraries. In order for me to produce a stacktrace, I will have to find a way to get doxygen to compile on Visual Studio.net 2010 (which is my current debugger).

I have a separate bug report filed regarding the conversion of the Visual Studio files in the source code of doxygen to VS.net 2010 SP1.

Correction on stacktraces: because I have not yet been able to compile doxygen with debugging symbols, I do not have a decent stacktrace to put on this bug report.

Confirmed. Should be fixed in the next subversion update.

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.4. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information
that you think can be relevant.
