void function returns

Post by Alister »

Hi everyone, truly impressed by the effort gone into all of your projects. Thank you all very much.

When the attribute "Warn about undoumented parameters" is turned on, the following message
  • Warning: Documented empty return type
appears for functions which return void.

I don't recall Doxygen generating such a message for void returning functions.
The flood of these warnings in my projects is distracting me from resolving actual parameters which may have their documentation actually missing.
Might it be possible for this warning to be suppressed in some way?

Thank you.

That sounds like a bug to me.

This definitely sounds like an erroneous warning. We have noted this issue and will work on it this weekend along with a few other bug reports. Our apologies for not replying to this post sooner.

Thank you for this bug report. The issue has been resolved in DoxyPress version 1.2.3-rc1. Sources are available on github and our download site, as well as a Windows binary.
