Typescript: Commenting out in tsx file

[sandy081]

_From @wallverb on June 14, 2016 13:22_

Right now when I use cmd+/ in tsx file in jsx part of the file:

eg. on second line of:

<div>
  <div>...</div>
</div>

then it will convert it to

<div>
  // <div>...</div>
</div>

It would be awesome if it could turn it into

<div>
{/* <div>...</div> */}
</div>

I guess we never thought of this one. the assumption now that a comment in TS is always adding //. we will need to make it based on syntactic context. so we will need a new API on the LS side to do that, possibly getCommentEdits and getUncommentEdits to do the two operations based on context.

vscode now comments with the right syntax inside of tsx, so I guess this should be closed.

@radix, for me it does not... VScode 1.13.1

Still have JSX comment problem in VSCode 1.14.2, any updates?

This should be fixed in VS Code 1.19:

Please report any additional issues around jsx commenting against VS Code: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/new

What about regular Visual Studio?

Since this is a VS-specific feature i would add a comment on the VS issue tracking that under https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/50528/jsx-comment-syntax-is-incorrect.html
