[jira] [Commented] (CONFIGURATION-477) PropertyListConfiguration
cannot deal with comments

Emmanuel Bourg commented on CONFIGURATION-477:
----------------------------------------------
The specification I used to implement it didn't mention that comments were allowed.
http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/Developer/Base/Reference/NSPropertyList.html
I checked the plist parser in the OpenStep code and it does indeed skip C-style comments (both block comments and line comments):
{code:java}
/*
* Property list parsing - skip whitespace keeping count of lines and
* regarding objective-c style comments as whitespace.
* Returns YES if there is any non-whitespace text remaining.
*/
static BOOL skipSpace(pldata *pld)
{
unsigned char c;
while (pld->pos < pld->end)
{
c = pld->ptr[pld->pos];
if (GS_IS_WHITESPACE(c) == NO)
{
if (c == '/' && pld->pos < pld->end - 1)
{
/*
* Check for comments beginning '/' followed by '/' or '*'
*/
if (pld->ptr[pld->pos + 1] == '/')
{
pld->pos += 2;
while (pld->pos < pld->end)
{code}
