You can use the Comments tab to
edit the options that define the appearance of autocomments in the
target programming language.
About this task
If the comment style used in the target programming language
is the same as one of the default language profiles, you can use that
profile as a preset value, or you can define a custom comment style.
Procedure
To edit the comment options, complete the following steps:
- In the dialog box (for the type of language profile that
you want to edit), click the Comments tab.
- In the Preset Styles group, click
the None radio button to specify that you want
to define a new comment style.
- In the Comment Syntax group, complete
the following steps:
- In the Add field, type a comment delimiter,
and then click Add to add it to the list of
delimiters. For example, /* or // for
C++ comments.
- To remove a comment delimiter from the list, select the delimiter
that you want to remove, and then click Remove.
- If comments must start in the first column, select the Start
delimiter must start in column 1 check box.
- In the Comment continues until group,
do one of the following:
- Click the End of line radio button
if the comment will continue from the start delimiter until the end
of the changed line.
- Click the End Delimiter radio button
if the comment can span multiple lines and does not end until the
end delimiter is located. Type the characters that delimit the end
of the comment.
- Click the Column radio button if the
selected programming language uses a continuation character to define
lines that continue (such as the High Level Assembler language). From
the list, select the continuation column number that you want to act
as the end of the comment.
- Click Apply to save your selections
in the Comments tab.
