Hello Thorsten L

Yes,I want to know how to define a multiline comment in rails,

In Java we can define it like this

/*

Comment line 1

Comment line 2

Comment line 3

*/

Anything between /* and */ will be commented

So is there anyway that I can do this in rails

Hi Kushan

Thorsten did answer your question. I've changed it to look similar to your request.

=begin Comment line 1 Comment line 2 Comment line 3 =end

Hmm, I wonder if Thorsten's reply looked too much like English and got ignored? :slight_smile:

Cheers Mohit.

just keep in mind that kind of comments are reserved for ruby doc, so best practices would tell not to use them unless for that purpose.. which leaves us without a general purpose multi line comment in ruby (AFAIK)
