Hi, I also think that Doxygen won't do it for you automatically. I did a quick search through Doxygen pdf manual, and found nothing about such functionality.

In fact, it's kinda logical - virtual functions are meant to be overloaded, vFunction in B probably will do sth completely different (in implementation) than in A. And though it makes some sense in that interface documentation should be automatically added to overloaded virtual functions, I'm afraid that in current Doxygen version this can't be done. Maybe try sending feature request to author?

Btw, may I suggest to use Natural Docs - IMHO it's much better than Doxygen (which I was using for some time).

wow, that natural docs thing looks pretty damn awesome. I wonder how many other people use it?

NHERIT_DOCS
If the INHERIT_DOCS tag is set to YES (the default) then an undocumented member inherits the documentation from any documented member that it re-implements
