Thanks David and Ilja.
I faced the problem first when:
I checked in some files with single line comments in Rational Clearcase.When I downloaded the same code after some time it was full of compilation errors because some code (Method definitions and variable declarations) moved behind single line comments.That is new characters were not being recognized.. The files appear exactly same in WSAD editor/Textpad so this error can not creep in WSAD. Could be an issue with clearcase..
And two, in WSAD: If I write a method say-
Then if I type '/**' in the line above this method definition and press 'Enter' following comment isgenerated.
But, if I precede the above method with any other comment this behavior is not exihibited. For ex. following comment is generated if i carry out the above mentioned step..i.e without the '@' ..
This makes me think that presence of nay other comment might .. again I am not sure what.. but it has some effect..
Ilja,is the problem because of @ comments..? These are all over in the files I faced the issue with. Pls help..
And thanks again..
