Hello Forum, I wanna use nesting comments with µvision/C166. How to enable them? It is really annoying to work without them. Thanks - Peter N.B.: Nesting comments means something like this: /* bla bla /* This is bla */ blub blub */ All of this is a comment. Without nesting comments the comment would end just before "blub blub" and the second "*/" would end up with an error.
You can get very confused if you have a syntax-highlighting editor which handles nested comments in a slightly different way to your preprocessor! The safest (and ANSI-compliant) way is to avoid them!
Having said that, I have just noticed that there is a discrepancy between the way C51 and uVision handle adjacent comments. C51 regards the following as 2 separate comments, but uVision only colours the bold bit as a comment:
/* Comment 1 *//* Comment 2 Comment 2 cont'd */
