Syntax highlight fails when function argument is on separate line

[yoonghm]

Markdown can highlight the code correctly but the highlight package from the standard and C-Improved do not work.

int doIt(int a)
{
  //
}

int doIt
(int a)
{
  //
}

Hi! Thanks for reporting this. I'm afraid, there is no way to handle this properly, it's tmLanguage syntax limitation: it is possible to parse a source using regular expressions only line-by-line. That is, when parsing int doIt, there is no way to look ahead (int a) on the next line, and vice versa.
