const keyword parsing in C#

[noname77]

Hey, thanks for the great work!

I have a C# project and seem to have an issue with the sphinx output for const variables.
I think I'm on latest breathe and rogerbarton/sphinx-csharp

c# support issue xref #550
sphinx-csharp issue xref

% python -m pip freeze
[...]
breathe==4.30.0
Sphinx==4.1.2
sphinx-csharp==0.1.11

sphinxcontrib-qthelp==1.0.3
sphinxcontrib-serializinghtml==1.1.5
sphinxcontrib-versioning==2.2.1

% doxygen --version
1.9.2

My issue is that i have a class with a bunch of constants and it seems to fail to recognise those with the following warnings:

WARNING: Failed to find xref for: constbool, no objects found that end like this, searched in object types: ['class', 'struct', 'interface', 'function', 'var', 'event', 'enum']

WARNING: Failed to find xref for: conststring, no objects found that end like this, searched in object types: ['class', 'struct', 'interface', 'function', 'var', 'event', 'enum']

WARNING: Failed to find xref for: constint, no objects found that end like this, searched in object types: ['class', 'struct', 'interface', 'function', 'var', 'event', 'enum']

WARNING: Failed to find xref for: constfloat, no objects found that end like this, searched in object types: ['class', 'struct', 'interface', 'function', 'var', 'event', 'enum']

In my case its an child/internal static class, however the behaviour seems to be the same for any consts. static keyword is also added implicitly in the generated sphinx docs (not present in doxygen html)

class definition:

namespace Namespace
{
    public class OuterClass
    {
        public static class InnerClass
        {
            public const int SomeInt = 123;
        }
    }
}

Doxygen output:

      </memberdef>
  </compounddef>
</doxygen>

Doxygen html output:

Sphinx html output:

Any ideas how to get rid of the static keyword or at least split the constint into two keywords?
Or how to get the sphinx/breathe html output closer to that of doxygen?

Best,
Wiktor

update, the issue was fixed here: rogerbarton/breathe@fc0d085

static keyword is removed and const keyword is separate from any following type now

i think i should leave the issue open here until this is merged in
