Hi Eradicatore,

You can't embed comments like that in C:

C:\_32\C>type try.c
/* this is a test
 * c file  /* with an embedded comment */
 * in the middle
 *
 */

int main(void)
{
   int a;
   int b;
   return 0;
}


C:\_32\C>gcc -o try.exe try.c
try.c:3: error: syntax error before "the"
try.c:11: error: syntax error before "return"

C:\_32\C>
[download]

The comment is deemed to end at the first occurrence of */.

Cheers,
Rob
