Comments in ExecuteString()
Author
Hello,
I am wondering wether there are any restrictions regarding comments when using ExecuteString(). I get complaints when using // , /**/ seems to work for me though. Ideas?
Thanks.
Do you have \n somewhere in your script? it might be that you are commenting out an entire script... or large parts.

ExecuteString("var = 3; //comment...");
You need to add a line break after the comment. Just like Rain Dog suspected.
What happens is that AngelScript takes your string and concatenates it with a couple of predefined strings to form a function, which is then compiled and executed. With your example the script that is getting compiled is this:
Which obviously won't compile as the closing bracket is commented.

It should be enough with a '\n':
If this doesn't work, then it is a bug in AngelScript. I'll verify it.
