Block Comment - Odd Behavior

[the1corrupted]

It may just be me on this, but I've had compile fails when I block-comment out something with the squiggly brackets ({})

For example:

Code: Select all

/*if (this) {
	this.that()
} */

But if I move the end-comment to the following line, it compiles fine. I will sometimes get "No functions within functions" error message when I reload the script. I'm not sure if it's just how AHK parses each line, but I know other scripting langages where this behavior isn't present.

Not a real major game-changing/killing "bug".

Code: Select all

/*if (this) {
	this.that()
} 
*/

The */ has to be at the start of the line.

@chaz... you mean Startline: /* & Endline: */

Code: Select all

; This entire line is a comment.

Run Notepad  ; This is a comment on the same line as a command.

/*
MsgBox, This line is commented out (disabled).
MsgBox, This one too. 
*/

No, I believe chaz meant what he said, and was perfectly accurate. */ ends a comment, not a line. You can even put things after */, but not before it.
