I think we're mostly just bikeshedding about how to balance discoverability with duplication, but feel obliged to point out a third option. Our Doxygen config has MACRO_EXPANSION enabled both in the repo and on the site, so we can use macros to avoid duplicating documentation: #define BOILERPLATE \ /** Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit */ /** * @brief Main function * */ BOILERPLATE int main() {} I think that's too weird a hack, but happy to propose a patch if you disagree. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
