So now you can write:
STON fromStringWithComments: 'Point[/* this is X*/ 1, /* this is Y*/ 2] // Nice
huh ?'.
STON fromStringWithComments: '// Here is how you create a point:
Point[
// this is X
1,
// this is Y
2 ]
// Nice huh ?'.
The point of Richard is quite relevant though. Right now, the comments are
literally filtered out and thrown away. Maybe you do not want that, and maybe
you want to model the comments explicitly. A bit like:
MyGreatAppConfig {
#comment : 'This is a comment',
#hostname : 'localhost',
#port : 8080,
#datasources : [
MyDataConfig {
#comment : 'First datasource',
#url: 'postgresql://blabla' },
MyDataConfig {
#comment : 'Second datasource',
#url: 'postgresql://blabla' }
]
}
This way, when you write out the config, the comments remain in place. Of
course, the disadvantage is that people can only put comments in places where
this is explicitly allowed.
