Hi,

The current version of doxygen (1.4.5) is still afflicted by this bug.
Looking at my sources, it's apparent this only affects /pure virtual/
methods.  Other virtual methods are correctly documented in derived
classes, where the documentation is taken from the base class.

This also affects the "Reimplemented in" section of the detailed
method documentation.  It never says a pure virtual method is
reimplemented.

IMO this behaviour is incorrect.  You can certainly reimplement a pure
virtual function (there may be a default implementation you can chain
up to, even if you are forced to provide your own).  And for most
virtual functions, the behaviour of each reimplementation is identical
to the documentated behaviour of the base class method, leading to a
lot of annoying cutting and pasting, and then the effort of keeping
several copies of the same text up-to-date.


Regards,
Roger
