Remove a newline character that was added to the translated comments
prior to the code block. This way the structure of the pydoc output
more closely resembles that of the original doxygen comments.
Updating tests accordingly.
If \code was used inline, it produced an extra indent versus block
usage. This extra indent was also stored in the test output. This
update resolves this by simply removing a space that was being added
unnecessarily in handleTagVerbatim. Updating test case output
accordingly.
Using the standard inspect module instead of accessing __doc__ directly allows
the tests to pass both when using and not using -builtin, as whitespace-only
differences between the docstrings don't matter then because inspect.getdoc()
removes the indentation and the leading and trailing spaces.
This is similar to what had been already done for python_docstring unit test
in fa282b3540.
This is unnecessary and inconsistent with "builtin" case in which the
docstrings are not indented in the generated C++ code, thus making it
impossible to write tests working in both cases.
Most of the changes in this commit simply remove the extra whitespace from the
expected values in the tests.
In addition to translating the comment itself, also document the type of the
object returned. This is consistent with generating not only :param: but also
:type: for the parameters documented using @param.
For the parameter documentation to be really taken as such, in its entirety,
by Sphinx, it must be indented relative to the :param: tag. Do this by
appending an extra indent after every line of the output and work around the
unnecessary indent of the last line by removing the trailing whitespace.
This required updating the existing tests and removing the expected but not
present any more whitespace from them, but as trailing whitespace in the
documentation is at best insignificant (and at worst harmful) anyhow, this is
not a big price to pay for simpler translator code.
reST is standard Python markup, so use *...*, ``...`` and so on instead of
_..._, '...' etc.
No other changes even though the mapping of some Doxygen tags to markup used
for them seems suspicions (e.g. \var almost certainly should be the same as
\em).
Use the more or less standard :param:, :type:, :return: and :raises: in the
function/methods descriptions.
Update the output expected from the Python tests accordingly.
Update Doxygen-specific Python unit tests to work with the new indentation.
Update one of Doxygen-specific Java tests to still build with the new handling
of srcdir.
