<br><h2>Multi-Word Names</h2>
<p>Top level HeaderDoc tags, such as <b>@header</b> and <b>@function</b> can
take multi-word names. This is particularly useful for documenting
anonymous types for enumerations, for example. However, HeaderDoc
normally has no way to know whether a line containing multiple words
is a multi-word name or a name followed by a discussion.</p>
<p>There are two ways to get a multi-word name. One way is to
add a discussion tag, like this:</p>
<table><table cellpadding="8" width="100%" bgcolor="#F1F5F9" style="border: 1px solid #C9D1D7;"><tr><td scope="row"><table bgcolor="#F1F5F9" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td><pre><code> </code></pre></td><td><code><pre></pre></code></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></table>
<p>The other way is to simply add a line break after the name.</p>
<table><table cellpadding="8" width="100%" bgcolor="#F1F5F9" style="border: 1px solid #C9D1D7;"><tr><td scope="row"><table bgcolor="#F1F5F9" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td><pre><code> </code></pre></td><td><code><pre></pre></code></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></table>
<br><br>
<table width="100%" cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 class="mini_nav_text"><tr>
<td align=left scope="row">
<!-- insert Show/Hide frames -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"><!--
if (self != top) {
document.write('<a href="'+self.location+'" target="_top"><img src="../Resources/Images/show_toc_icon.gif" width="15" height="14" border="0" style="margin-bottom: -2px;" alt=""></a> <a href="'+self.location+'" target="_top">Hide TOC</a>');
}
else {
document.write('<a href="../index.html?'+self.location+'" target="_top"><img src="../Resources/Images/show_toc_icon.gif" width="15" height="14" border="0" style="margin-bottom: -2px;" alt=""></a> <a href="../index.html?'+self.location+'" target="_top">Show TOC</a>');
