Summary
<tt>
tags caused unwanted cross-reference linksProblem
When text in
<tt>
tags contains backslashes (e.g.,<tt>.bar.hello(\)</tt>
), RDoc was incorrectly creating cross-reference links. This happened because the backslash matched the escaped character pattern inCROSSREF_REGEXP
, causing the entire string to be processed as a potential cross-reference.Solution
Added checks in both
handle_regexp_CROSSREF
andconvert_flow
to detect when a match is solely due to escaped character patterns that don't represent valid method/class references. These strings are now rendered as code without creating links.Test plan
test_convert_CROSSREF_backslash_escapes_in_monofont
to verify the fixFixes #1390
