Remarks

Comments are lines or blocks of code that a compiler or interpreter ignores. There are two types of comments supported in the managed package framework language service classes:

1. Block Comments:

   These are comments with beginning and ending delimiters and can part of a line or multiple lines. For example, in C#, block comments start with /* and end with */.

2. Line Comments:

   These are comments that have a beginning delimiter and go to the end of the line. For example, in C#, line comments start with //. In Visual Basic, a line comment starts with '.

Notes to Implementers

If your language defines comments other than with the characters used by C#, you must derive a class from the Source class, override the GetCommentFormat method to instantiate a CommentInfo class and fill it in with the comment characters for your language.

Notes to Callers

An instance of the CommentInfo class is created and returned from the GetCommentFormat method on the Source class. The base class instance of CommentInfo is filled in with C#/C++-style comment characters.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
