Hi,
It seems that in boostbook code, <purpose> shouldn't really contain
paragraphs, but in quite a few cases they do which leads to paragraphs
inside paragraphs in some of the generated documentation. For an
example, see:
http://www.boost.org/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm/doc/html/boost/any_cast.html
which contains the invalid code:
<p>boost::any_cast — <p>Custom keyword cast for extracting a value
of a given type from an
<tt class="computeroutput"><a href="any.html" title="Class
any">any</a></tt>.</p></p>
This is invalid because <p> tags can't be nested. There are lots of
other examples of the same problem.
The funny thing is that boostbook already contains code for stripping
the paragraphs out - but it doesn't get called. Does anyone know if
there's a reason for this? Maybe to give authors more control over the
generated documentation...
Anyway, I've attached a patch which turns it on in this case, I think
there might be other places in the boostbook code where it's
appropriate, but I haven't looked into it yet.
Does the patch look okay?
Daniel
