Broken data ports description on Orocos toolchain v2.1

Submitted by phamelin on Sat, 2010-11-06 09:32

Hello,

I just found that the .doc() method used to describe the data ports seems to
don't work. To do a simple test, I just modified the HelloWorld component
with something like this:

this->ports()->addPort( outport ).doc("The output port");
this->ports()->addPort( bufferport ).doc("The buffer port");

However, the taskbrowser argues that there isn't any documentation:

Services:
the_buffer_port ( No description set for this Port. Use .doc() to document
it. )
the_results ( No description set for this Port. Use .doc() to document
it. )

Am I missing something is this is really a bug?

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04-LTS with GCC 4.4.3.

That's really strange, and it's a bug. If you could add it to Bugzilla, that
way I can keep track of it, thanks !
