    I hope this is more readable.
    Hi Experts,
    My perl script reads every line in the java program. But i have a problem. If it is something like 
    public void method1(String str1);

    [download]
    It is ok.. it reads the whole line in one shot. But if i have something like 
    public void method1(String str1,
                         String str2);

    [download]
    Then it reads this sentence as two lines. My requirement is i need to comment this line using java comments . Using my script now it happpens as 
    /*public void method1(String str1,*/
               String str2);

    [download]
    Here the second line also has to be commented. Is there any way by which i can solve this problem????????????
    1)What i am doing is reading the file
    2)iterating through each line.
    3)check if the line starts with public
    4)if so then comment that line
    Zer, I hope u understood now.
