Nested comments in XML
Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2009 4:16 pm
Some languages allow nested comments.
Some languages do not, notably XML.
But, Oxygen 10.3 allows easy nesting of comments via the trick of changing the inner comment symbols so that the whole comment is legal.
Then, it's changed back when the section is uncommented.
Using Ctl+Shift+comma to toggle commented sections is a snap.
For me, this feature alone makes version 10.3 worthwhile.
I don't know how much time and trouble I've had to take in the past to comment out sections of XSL that already had comments in them.
Thanks a lot for this feature! Every XML editor should have this.
Great job.
