Purpose

Comment line

Syntax

// <expC>

See Also

*, &&, /*...*/

Description

The // command allows comment lines to be inserted in programs to enhance their readability and maintainability. Like the && command, the // command allows all characters following it on a line, to be treated as a comment and to be ignored by the Lianja/4GL. The // command differs from the * command, in that it can be placed anywhere on a line, even following an executable command.

Example

// open the table
use patrons index names  // view in name order
