In doxygen I write:
/*! Sample:
\code{.cpp}
void main(int argc, char** argv)
{
if (argc < 2)
{
cout << "no way!" << endl;
}
else
{
foobar(argv[1]);
}
}
\endcode
*/
Now doxygen will generate a perfectly syntax-highlighted code sample for my documentation, but unfortunately it also kills the indentation:
Sample:
void main(int argc, char** argv)
{
if (argc < 2)
{
cout << "no way!" << endl;
}
else
{
foobar(argv[1]);
}
}
What can I do to make doxygen respect my indentation. I know there is \verbatim, but it does not highlight the syntax.
EDIT: Here's the doxygen configuration, perhaps there's something wrong in there:

If you are using Doxygen 1.8.1.1 or older the indentation will be respected. Doxygen Release 1.8.1.2 removes leading indentation shared by the @code lines. Check the Change log released on 12-07-2012.

I had the same problem and it turned out due to the use of a custom HTML_STYLESHEET: our CSS file defined its own styles for div.fragment used by Doxygen to wrap code snippets which didn't include white-space: pre. Adding it fixed the problem.

Update your doxygen html (.css) stylesheet to the latest version. That fixed the problem for me.

Using doxygen 1.8.1 I get a syntax highlighted code block with indentation respected with the example in the question. Which version of doxygen are you using? Perhaps this is just a case of upgrading your version of doxygen. If this is not the solution you will have to provide a bit more context, i.e. is the example documentation you give in your source code in a .txt or .markdown file?
I did have to change your opening comment character from \ to /, I presume this is just a typo. Also, if your file contains C++ source then the {.cpp} can be left out of \code{.cpp} (i.e. \code by itself is fine).
