How can I comment out a method? [message #708471] Tue, 02 August 2011 17:10 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi there,

I have been looking through the jdt core api and the dom api also. I can't find out how to comment out a method from my source code programmatically. Can this be done? If so, how?

Many thanks for your help,
Regards

Why bother wasting resources to post such a condescending reply? I have a genuine question, which I thought would merit a genuine response. Anyway, I have reported your post to the mods.

While this forum doesn't have moderators per se, I do agree that Dani's response is not helpful, and I wonder why one would even bother writing something like that.

Hopefully someone else will respond with a bit more insight.

Because that is the right answer - though maybe a bit too short. There
is no API to comment code. You need to comment out the code by adding
the corresponding things to the source code. There are several API/ways
to change the source code in JDT Core.

What do you mean by programmatically? As in, you want to disable a method during run-time from your program? I'm pretty sure that can't be done with a compiled language like Java. For that, you need an interpreted language. You may be able to achieve the same effect by setting a boolean value, and only executing that method if the boolean value is true...

Is there a way, through the api (programatically) that I can assign a comment '//' to a line of code? No, I do not mean "disable a method".
