Known Limitations

C/C++, C# and Java parsers do not recognise definition of functions or overloaded operators in case of embeded comments after identifier name and before the list of arguments.
- This function is not detected by Metrix++:
```
int getMax /* undesarable comment */ (int* array, int length)
{
    /* ... */
}
```
- This function is detected:
```
int getMax(int* array, int length) /* here is fine */
{
    /* ... */
}
```

C/C++ parser does not recognise comments within preprocessor statements. These comments are considered to be parts of a define.

This comment is not recognized by Metrix++:

#define GET_MAX(a, b)      \
    /*                    \
     * This macros returns  \
     * maximum from a and b \
     */                  \
    ((a > b) ? a : b)

This comment is recognised:

/*
 * This macro returns maximum from a and b
 */
#define GET_MAX(a, b) \
    ((a > b) ? a : b)

C# parser does not recognise getters/setters for properties, if there is a comment before a block.

    /* ... */
}
```
Java parser does not recognise anonymous inner classes.
C/C++, C# and Java parsers do not recognise definition of classes/structs/namespaces/interface) in case of embeded comments after keyword and identifier name.
- This class is not detected by Metrix++
```
class /* comment */ MyClass
{
    /* ... */
