Is there any C++ IDE that can display LaTeX formulas in C++ comments as formulas? I envision this as a very handy instrument to document code that implements some math, but in order for it to be useful LaTeX code should be compiled and shown as set of glyphs.

I've missed this a few times. My fallback is to use words and/or special symbols as much as possible, making it "cross"-IDE. It can be tedious to explain an integral with words though... – keyser Jul 31 '14 at 05:44

Sounds like a handy Plugin for Eclipse/Netbeans to me – user3085931 Jul 31 '14 at 05:47

2Doxygen can create documentation with formulas written in latex: http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/manual/formulas.html – MadScientist Jul 31 '14 at 07:26

1@MadScientist I am aware of doxygen, but seeing formulas when you actually browse code is alot more convenient. – Vasaka Jul 31 '14 at 09:18
