Re: Parsing CL comments

Dennis,

I'm not an expert ( it's been a while since my formal languages course
:) but recursive decent parsing provides an answer to your OQ in the
following manner:

At the point that the parser is looking at /*ALL or /*PART1 the parser
wouldn't be looking for a comment.

HTH,
Charles

Hmm. Recursive descent parsing is your friend.

Is there an English translation for that, James?  I have no idea what

Interesting.  Not sure how it helps answer the OQ, but I learned something.
And that always makes for a better day!

Thanks!
