perhaps he's hoping that someone will just write it for him to take....as he's not participating in the posts at all.

    that may well be the case. however, as i'm sure you're aware, the chances of that happening are miniscule.

      Of course i´m not expecting that someone gives me the code!!! Are you crazy!?? I just want an opinion!! And i did not replied back because i could not see the replys!! I thank you for all your help, and i must clear one thing out.. This program is not to punish programmers ou something like that..!! My company produces lots of code, and upgrades lots of it.. This upgrade is made by many diferent people.. so the comments should work has a way of easily understanding the code, by explanning what each method does, why it was build ou rebuild, by who and when!! This is almost strictly for maintenance of code!!!!!

      Another thing is where can i find examples with the module Parse::RecDescent?

      Thank you all for your participation and help!

      you can find examples using Parse::RecDescent around the monastery. there have been many questions asked about that module and it's use, you may find some of them helpful. remember, Super Search is your friend! also, you can look at the pod documentation for the module to get more information.

      as you learn to use this site better, you'll get better answers. read the docs i linked to previously. they will give you ideas on how to ask questions better, how to format posts better, and how to track the responses better.

      if you need help with any of these things, please feel free to post a question, ask someone in the chatterbox, or /msg me for info. we are all here both to learn, and to help.

      the parsing module example is at Parse::RecDescent Example
      About comments: what i've found so far is that comments are a very personal thing, i.e. gibberish to others that may confuse further. The one must have comment in any code is the standard header: author, date created, last modified. the last one "last modified" being most important that that field is kept up to date.
      I think we all here understand that you'll be judging the code (not the programmers) by the comments; alas everyone posting so far (including myself) deplore the idea of using such a measure, as it would be the worst of the metrics to use.
