Rust: Multi-line comments

Created on 25 Jun 2010  路  2Comments  路  Source: rust-lang/rust

Currently no support for multi-line comments in source files, only single-line (the // kind). Implement multi-line comments in the frontend. Should be depth-balanced. As Graydon puts it, "the lexer already has a sample bracequote balanced-quote sub-mode, easy to copy for multiline comments."
