Some problems I see with your regex: There’s no need for the |[\r\n] sequences in your regex; a negated character class like [^*] matches everything except *, including line separators. It’s only the . (dot) metacharacter that doesn’t match those. Once you’re inside the comment, the only character you have to look for is an … Read more
You can use the “Replace” (or “Replace in Path” if you want to remove comments in multiple files) in the regular expression mode and then use this regular expression in the “Text to find” field: (/\*([^*]|[\r\n]|(\*+([^*/]|[\r\n])))*\*+/|[ \t]*//.*) and replace it with an empty string. Then press “All” to apply this replacement to the entire file … Read more
The first form is called Javadoc. You use this when you’re writing formal APIs for your code, which are generated by the javadoc tool. For an example, the Java 7 API page uses Javadoc and was generated by that tool. Some common elements you’d see in Javadoc include: @param: this is used to indicate what … Read more
Fortran doesn’t automatically skip comments lines in input files. You can do this easily enough by first reading the line into a string, checking the first character for your comment symbol or search the string for that symbol, then if the line is not a comment, doing an “internal read” of the string to obtain … Read more
var findComments = function(el) { var arr = []; for(var i = 0; i < el.childNodes.length; i++) { var node = el.childNodes[i]; if(node.nodeType === 8) { arr.push(node); } else { arr.push.apply(arr, findComments(node)); } } return arr; }; var commentNodes = findComments(document); // whatever you were going to do with the comment… console.log(commentNodes[0].nodeValue);
You can do this easily in RStudio: select the code and click CTR+SHIFT+C to comment/uncomment code.
there’s some JS that I want to load for all browsers EXCEPT IE8, what conditional comment should I use? For something to appear in ‘other browsers’ that don’t support CCs, you need a downlevel-revealed conditional comment. <!–[if !IE 8]><!–> …. <!–<![endif]–> (this is slightly different to Microsoft’s official syntax which is not valid HTML.) “All … Read more
Do it like that: a, b, c, d = range(1, 5) result = ( # First is 1 a * # Then goes 2, result is 2 now b * # And then 3, result is 6 c * # And 4, result should be 24 d ) Actually, according to PEP8 parentheses are preferred … Read more
It is fully valid to do <!– this, –> <!DOCTYPE html> However, it brings all versions of IE into quirks-mode (unless it is forced into no-quirks mode — see the Gotchas section below). The simplest is to move the comment below the DOCTYPE. <!DOCTYPE html> <!– this, –> But another way is to “upgrade” the comment … Read more
This will have some overhead, but technically it does answer your question: echo abc `#Put your comment here` \ def `#Another chance for a comment` \ xyz, etc. And for pipelines specifically, there is a clean solution with no overhead: echo abc | # Normal comment OK here tr a-z A-Z | # Another normal … Read more
