In config_file.cpp, only hash is supported. </p> <p> Please can semicolon be added for consistency within boost as well as other applications. </p> <p> For example, PHP only supports semicolon (they have dropped support for hash which I am given to understand was always the lesser used character for commenting INI files). Many applications do not support hash. </p> en-us /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9789 Trac 1.4.3 Vladimir Prus Tue, 18 Mar 2014 14:14:08 GMT https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9789 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/9789 <ul> <li><strong>attachment</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">config_file.cpp.patch</span> </li> </ul> <p> such a solution would be appropriate? </p> Ticket
