The most worthless comment ever

[cptKoala]

somehow your post has no value to this thread :-\

UNless it's changed in 2k10 I don't think the task list is particularly useful outside of VB because of non-overridable language specific behavior. In VB it shows all the TODOs in the solution. In C# it shows all the TODOs in open files. In C++ it shows all the TODOs in the file being edited. The latter two are near useless in larger projects. Instead I litter my .cs files with #warning TODO blah... lines.

That makes sense when printing... especially on fan-fold paper. :~

When was the last time you loaded a box of green-bar in a line printer?

1992-08-02 (or thereabouts), but I still print my code occasionally. Nowadays I use Word and I have a header that indicates the filename and pages.

hey, that was not suppose to be viewable. That is how VS knows when it reaches EOF.

Yusuf May I help you?

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick - Silverlight *.XCP files. Visit the Hindi forum here.

Sometimes, when a "{" or "}" is missing, this comment can help investigate backward.

Not only worthless comments, but also funny, seen in the assembly code of DG AOS/VS (can anyone remember it?) In the code executed when one shut down the system: < some code > HALT HALT ;JUST IN CASE The HALT instruction stopped the CPU completely In the panic code - executed when there was an error which the OS couldn't handle: < some code > ; I don't know how you got here, but you're in deep s**t Jerry

[Gary Wheeler]

If DG == Data General, I'm not surprised. I used a DG 'Nova 4' system one time, a very long time ago. Regarding the doubled HALT instruction, that's also not too surprising. Depending upon the interrupt architecture and when they increment the program counter, I could see a glitch between decoding the HALT instruction and its execution causing the code to continue executing.
