Hi,

It seems that using // for line comments in EOL causes the remainder of
an EGL file to be ignored from that position. This is an easy mistake to
make, as the actual comment format is not document for EOL (or have I
overlooked something?)

Hi Steffen,

This should be indicated with an error marker in the editor... Could you
please file a bug report for this?

Cheers,
Dimitris

Hi Steffen,

Thanks for filing the bug report. This has now been fixed but I can't
seem to be able to commit to the SVN at the moment. I'll let you know
once I do.

Cheers,
Dimtiris

Hi Steffen,

Still no luck with the SVN (see
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=265156) but I noticed your
comment on the syntax for comments in EOL and EGL :)

In EOL, the syntax is -- for single line comments and -* *- for
multi-line comments. In EGL on the other hand, you can still comment out
individual EOL statements using the EOL comments but you can also
comment out entire EGL parts including both dynamic and static text
using [* *]. I'll add this to the book shortly.

Cheers,
Dimitris
