I ran into this awhile ago and forgot to ever mention it. Did a quick forum search but didn't find anything either.
If you comment out your code like so:
| Code: |
f1::
msgbox f1
return
/*f2::
msgbox f2
return*/
f3::
msgbox f3
return |
Autohotkey will load the script, but f3 will never be triggered. No errors will every be thrown.
Fixing it is simply moving the end comment onto its own line.
| Code: |
f1::
msgbox f1
return
/*f2::
msgbox f2
return
*/
f3::
msgbox f3
return |

i have noticed this as well. when testing scripts for people in the forum, I often put an unclosed /* at the end of the script and ust test after that point in the same file.
It may be nice for AHK to detect an "unclosed" /*, but the documentation is still correct in this case.
Question for you C/C++, etc coders out there: If you end a file wit an unclosed /*, is there any warning or error? I suspect it's not even possible, sice all the code needs a } anyway.

My bad, still don't understand why AHK can't at least throw an error when it occurs though. |
