Mike Beckerle commented on DAFFODIL-2333:
-----------------------------------------
Note: This shoudl really be two separate layers. One for comment syntax
removal. The other for line folding.
A generic layer that takes a regex and a replacement could implement both this
comment stripping and the line unfolding as two different pre-processing
passes. (Regex with start-of-line anchor would be needed.)
> line folding layer that accepts LF or CRLF line endings and strips comments

> A user (depth.painter 'at' mail.com) requested line folding that removes a
> variant of line-folding similar to already supported, but also strips out a
> comment syntax.
> bq. ....Line folding and line comments.
> bq.
> bq. For line folding the layer transforms specifically the lineFolded_*
> family looks promising however the two that are implemented don't match my
> file specification because crlf%x20; and lf%x20; can both be used to fold
> lines.
> bq.
> bq. As for line comments I currently have some Comment elements peppered
> throughout my schema however I'm sure I missed some. And that strategy isn't
> even up to spec because comments are supposed to be ignored during parsing.
