I agree with Aslak in this case :-) Don't try to program with xml-ish XDtblabla, just use very high level, very coarse grained template tags. > Could we have something like > <XDtComment:comment>I do this because ...</XDtComment:comment> > that would not be generated Good. And to make it easier to distinguish you can easily create a new coloring for <XDtComment:comment>. So I don't agree with Andrew's proposal here, because: 1- coloring makes it distinguishable in your editor so no need for a radically different // /** style. 2- it's easy to implement, it's just a template tag. > And maybe also > <XDtComment:comment generate="true">Bla bla > bla</XDtComment:comment> that would be generated between /* */ > What do you think ? And why? If I understand it correctly generate="true" causes the comment to appear also in output document, but what's the problem with using raw /** // in templates outputting java source and <!-- in xml-ish ones? It's limiting, how about a template which generates VB code? :-) Will you support outputting VB comments too?! ;-) Cheers, Ara. _______________________________________________ Xdoclet-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xdoclet-devel
