Comments
Comments are pieces of text used to annotate a program, and are technically
another form of whitespace. Comments are for the programmer’s use only; they
are stripped from the source text before parsing. There are two ways to delineate
comments: the C method and the C++ method. Both are supported by mikroC.
C comments
C comment is any sequence of characters placed after the symbol pair
/*. The
comment terminates at the first occurrence of the pair
*/ following the initial /*.
The entire sequence, including the four comment-delimiter symbols, is replaced by
one space after macro expansion.
In mikroC,
int
/* type */
i
/* identifier */
;
parses as:
int i;
Note that mikroC does not support the nonportable token pasting strategy using
/**/. For more on token pasting, refer to Preprocessor topics.
C++ comments
mikroC allows single-line comments using two adjacent slashes (
//). The com-
ment can start in any position, and extends until the next new line. The following
code,
int i;
// this is a comment
int j;
parses as:
int i;
int j;
