Bug 7656 – ddoc misinterprets commented parentheses in an example

Consider this example: -------- int x; // This is a comment (and here is some int y; // more information about that comment) -------- In the resulting html file, the second line (int y) is colored as if it were commented out, and the output looks like this: int x; // This is a comment (and here is some ) int y; // more information about that comment As a workaround, you can avoid parentheses inside comments. This likely affects D1 too, but I'm not sure. Tested with 2.058
