This patch allows for nested 'C-style' comments, which can be useful
especially while debugging.
<?php
/* comments
/* now /* nest */ */
/*/*/*/*
*/*/*/*/
*/
?>
Since comments are handled purely lexical, there should be virtually no
performance hit.
The following two examples show how errors are handled:
1)
<?php
/*
*/
*/
?>
2)
<?php
/*
/*
*/
?>
Ad 1) This will yield a zend_error(E_COMPILE_ERROR,"Invalid nesting of
comments") on the
last line. Unpatched, a parse error is the most likely result.
Ad 2) A zend_error(E_COMPILE_WARNING, "unterminated comment starting line
%d", CG(comment_start_line)) is raised.
The attached patch is against latest CVS
Best regards,
Anders Johannsen
