Doxygen - Comments parser - 3

[toninlg]

In the same workspace, if a function is defined in a C file of a library project with a Doxygen comment in front of it and if the prototype is defined in the corresponding header file : in the main project, the Doxygen comment is not displayed.
ie :
if I define print_hello() in .c and .h : print_hello() is displayed in the in main project's auto-completion box but with no comment. But if I define print_hello() in .c and print_hello(void) in .h, both functions appear in the main project's auto-completion box and the doxygen comment is displayed for print_hello() from .c.

This is because codelite sees them as different functions (because of the 'void' argument)
Simply avoid that kind of syntax...

I am not going to fix this, since its not worth the effort.
Patches however, are most welcomed

Maybe my explanation isn't good. If I use the same syntax in header and code (which is normal), the parser sees the same function, but no comment is displayed. Maybe it looks only at header and displays nothing because the comment is in code file?. The parser would ideally look in header and in code if there is a comment before the function or is prototype. The example with void was an example where the parser is working since the function declaration in code isn't "overriden" with the one in header file.
