Emacs hide/show support for C++ triple-slash Doxygen markup?
- by jsyjr
I use Doxygen's triple-slash syntax to markup my C++ code. There are
two important cases which arise:
1) block markup comments which are the sole element on the line and may
or may not begin flush left; e.g.
class foo
/// A one sentence brief description of foo. The elaboration can
/// continue on for many lines.
{
...
};
void foo::bar
/// A one sentence brief description of bar. The elaboration can
/// continue on for many lines.
() const
{
...
}
2) trailing markup comments which always follow some number of C++
tokens earlier on the first line but may still spill over onto
subsequent lines; e.g.
class foo
{
int _var1; ///< A brief description of _var1.
int _var2; ///< A brief description of _var2
///< requiring additional lines.
}
void foo::bar
( int arg1 ///< A brief description of arg1.
, int arg2 ///< A brief description of arg2
///< requiring additional lines.
) const
{
...
}
I wonder what hide/show support exists to deal with these conventions.
The most important cases are the block markup comments. Ideally I would
like to be able to eliminate these altogether, meaning that I would
prefer not to waste a line simply to indicate presence of a folded
block markup comment. Instead I would like a fringe marker, a la
