+Inside a struct or union description, you can use the ``private:`` and
+``public:`` comment tags. Structure fields that are inside a ``private:``
+area are not listed in the generated output documentation.
+
+The ``private:`` and ``public:`` tags must begin immediately following a
+``/*`` comment marker.  They may optionally include comments between the
+``:`` and the ending ``*/`` marker.

+   * @b: second member
+   * @d: fourth member
+   *
