From that error message it doesn't seem to like the "--macro" part inside the
xml comment. It seems fpdoc wants to process that "--" as the end of the
comment.
this was where i was headed... if the multi-line comments work properly, perhaps
it is the "--" being misinterpreted...
As a test I replaced the two "--" parts in the comment on line 3 with a
single "-" each - just to test. Magically fpdoc now processes the XML file
without issues.
it seems to me that the end of the comment should be being hunted as "-->"
instead of just "--"... i don't know the code, though...
Using Mozilla Firefox (the web browser) and opening the original XML file, it
too fails with a validation error. So I guess "--" is not allowed inside a
xml comment block. Another reason to dislike XML. ;-)
that's interesting... perhaps there's some form of escaping "--" in comments??
