Right, but it was the presence of the comments, not the contents of the comments that I was objecting to. Using padding comments would be bad too IMO. <snipped example> > So, J2ME & J2SE end-developers are kept happy. As I said before, I like the idea to be able to flip the comments between different processor targets for the benefit of Harmony developers. So, for example, you can work with your SE spectacles on, and I can work with my ME spectacles on, then we both commit to the repository in a canonical form. However, for the end-user (Mrs Java developer) the processor would strip out the irrelevant streams' code from the canonical form to produce a clean target source code. > As a bonu$, you can al$o $tart a nice busine$$ $elling advertizing $pace > in $ource code. ;-P LOL -- hey, now you are talking ;-) Regards, Tim -- Tim Ellison ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
