Hello, Doxygen users,

Short story:

In Doxygen 1.8.10, on Windows 7, parsing .c code, the output for the 
\snippetlineno and \snippetdoc commands seems broken. That is, the output does 
not match the content of the output for \snippet (which shows the expected 
code, proving that I do have correct file referencing). Similarly, the 
\include, \includelineno, and \includedoc output seems to be buggy, although 
not in the same way.

I have my good-enough usage (using the \includelineno command), so I do not 
have an immediate question that needs an answer. This message is by way of info 
in case anyone wants to look into the issue further.

------------------

Details:

I’ve successfully set up an example file, snippet_one.inc, that uses “//! 
[snippet_name]” delimiters as the first and last lines of the file.

I can include the snippet content (that’s between the delimiters) in multiple 
other file’s multiple other functions’ Doxygen comment output via the “\snippet 
   snippet_one.inc    snippet_name” command. So I know that I’ve correctly 
included the path in the EXAMPLE_PATH configuration, and that all relative 
paths are correctly working.

* However, the output for the “\snippet” command appears with color syntax 
coding but no line numbers, contrary to how the \code samples appear (no color, 
but line numbered). I did not expect to see the line numbers (given the 
existence of the \snippetlineno command), but I didn’t expect or want the color 
syntax coding. (More about color coding for the \code command, below.)

* When I tried the “\snippetlineno” command, the output changed to just a 
single line, “<file-name> <snippet_name>”; no code appeared. I didn’t change 
anything else except “snippet” –> “snippetlineno”.

* I tried the “\snippetdoc” variant, and I got the same “<file-name> 
<snippet_name>” output.

--
(I also normally use the “@” form of doxygen commands instead of the “\” form, 
so I tried the “\” form for the snippetlineno and snippetdoc, but the results 
didn’t change.)

I figured I’d try the related “\include” and “\includelineno”, and 
“\includedoc” commands, and they also seem broken, but not the same way as the 
\snippet, \snippetlineno, \snippetdoc set.

* The “\include” output (where I removed the “//! [snippet_name]” delimiters 
from the snippet_one.inc doc, and in the target file function block used just 
the filename without the <snippet_name>) was the same as the “\snippet” output: 
the code has color syntax coding but no line numbers.

* The “\includelineno” output is the closest to what I’m looking for: it 
correctly includes the line numbers, but also still color codes things. (I 
don’t really care, but it is odd to see when the regular \code output isn’t 
color-coded.

(I did find that if I explicitly set the language for the \code command, “\code 
{.c}”, I do not get the line numbers, but I do get color coding. Seems that 
someone figured this out about which formatters are used for which languages: 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21406101/doxygen-code-line-numbers.)

* The “\includedoc” output doesn’t have the code, just the “<file-name>” string.

Other than the OPTIMIZE_OUTPUT_FOR_C = YES config option, I’m not sure if any 
other config options might be relevant?
