Comments (*#_ ... _#*)

Pretranslated C++ code > Preparing Delphi code > Frequent re-translation > Comments (*#_ ... _#*)

Delphi2Cpp II interprets the extended Delphi brackets (*#_ ... _#*) in a special way. A text in such brackets is taken unchanged into the C++ code.

For example an additional header is included into the C++ code by the following line:

(*#_#include "math.h"_#*)

->

#include "math.h"

Remark: in the first version of Delphi2Cpp program these parenthesis were defined as (*_ ... _*). This led to errors in code like in WinAPI.DXGI1_2.pas:

    function GetDisplayModeList1(

      (* [in] *) EnumFormat: DXGI_FORMAT;

      (* [in] *) Flags: UINT;

      (*_Inout_*) var pNumModes: UINT;

      (*_Out_writes_to_opt_(*pNumModes,*pNumModes)*) out pDes: DXGI_MODE_DESC1): HRESULT; stdcall;
