Scripts support c-style multi-line comments?

(Flippy) #1

Hi,

I just saw the following in the script parse source code:

// skip double slash comments
		if ( c == '/' && data[1] == '/' )
		{
			data += 2;
			while (*data && *data != '
') {
				data++;
			}
//			com_lines++;
		}
		// skip /* */ comments
		else if ( c=='/' && data[1] == '*' ) 
		{
			data += 2;
			while ( *data && ( *data != '*' || data[1] != '/' ) ) 
			{
				data++;
				if(*data == '
') {
//					com_lines++;
				}
			}
			if ( *data ) 
			{
				data += 2;
			}
		}
		else
		{
			break;
		}

Especially the // skip /* */ comments part…

Are these kind of comments allowed in W:ET map scripts?

game_manager
{
   spawn
   {
       wait 150
       /* this is
       a multi-line
       comment... */
       wm_setwinner 1
   }
}

Is that allowed?

doing some stuff with multiples atm, so i had a quick look on this issue, caus i asked that myself from time to time here and there, but i never was on pc or i simply had no nerves to test this quick. the answer is yes. ive tested this quiete sufficient i think. i implemented a trigger_multiple, which reaches the script and tells me through “hi1” or “hi2” messages, that it was acitvated. i used this code here for the multiple:

ghosttrigger1
{

spawn
{

  wait 500
  setstate ghosttrigger1 default

}

activate
{
/*
wm_announce “hi1”
togglespeaker poltergeist

  setstate ghosttrigger1 invisible
  setstate ghosttrigger2 default
  */

  wm_announce "hi2"

}
}

doing some ghost stuff atm rofl having some really sick thoughts, but i simply dont say :tongue: will be released in a few weeks i think. nothing outnormous lol (commercial). so to get back on topic. this code is quiete proof enough that those c-style comments seem to work, becaus when i walk over the multiple it only prints to me the message hi2. hope this helps :slight_smile:

Cool, I never knew that. I have to implement that in ETScript, because it doesn’t comment code like that at the moment! Thanks.
