<h1>Comments</h1>
|
|
<p>Comments are lines in a source file that have been marked to be ignored by the compiler.
|
|
Two styles of comments are supported by current C/C++ compilers:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><samp>/* text */</samp></li>
|
|
<li><samp>// text</samp></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Comment</h3>
|
|
<p>You can quickly comment out one or more lines of code by inserting the leading
|
|
characters <samp>//</samp> at the beginning of the line. To do so, select the line
|
|
(or lines) of code you want to comment out and press <b>CTRL+/</b> (slash).</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Uncomment</h3>
|
|
<p>To uncomment select the line (or lines) of code, and press <b>CTRL+\</b>
|
|
(backslash).
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Tip:</b> The characters <samp>/* */</samp> on lines that are
|
|
already commented out, are not affected when you comment and uncomment code.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Multiline comment</h3>
|
|
<p>You can use the Content Assist feature to insert a multi-line comment before a function.
|
|
Type <tt>com+Ctrl+Space</tt>, and the following code is entered at the cursor location:
|
|
<br><pre>
|
|
/*
|
|
* author userid
|
|
*
|
|
* To change this generated comment edit the template variable "comment":
|
|
* Window>Preferences>C>Templates.
|
|
*/
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
To change the default comment click <b>Window > Preferences > C > Templates</b>. For more information see the
|
|
