Tooltip not displaying doxygen information

Harjit

I'm running Qt Creator 4.11.0 with C++ -> ClangCodeModel plugin enabled.

Per https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-4557?focusedCommentId=388140&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-388140, if I hover over a function with brief doxygen info, it should show it.

Alas, it doesn't. All I see is the return type, the function name and function parameters.

Hi @Harjit,

please provide a minimal example where this does not work. You need it to create a bugreport.

Tooltip I see:

ClangCodeModel Plugin is enabled:

Is this sufficient for me to file a bug report?

@Harjit It's not, because we need an example to reproduce.

Otherwise its impossible to locate the bug.

Hi
Also did you use
https://github.com/mmmarcos/doxygen2qtcreator
and the commands in "How to use it" ran without errors so
you did in fact tag the html and compiled into Creator docs ?

Not needed. Its fully integrated.

@mrjj I did not use doxygen2qtcreator.

My reading of the bug report was that I shouldn't have to use doxygen2qtcreator and that this capability was provided by the ClangCodeModel plugin and new code.

@aha_1980 I tried to attach a test project in a zip file and I get an "ERROR You do not have enough privileges for this action."

What I did notice is that if the function is in the same .c file, then I get the function declaration and the brief line:

But if the function is in a different .c file, then I only get the function declaration:

I added this info. to https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-4557?focusedCommentId=388140&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-388140 but the bug is closed.

Do I need to open a new bug or is the comment sufficient?
