Question

I have some classes that contains comments like as follow:

...
...
...
/*     */ 
/*     */   public void startApplication()
/*     */   {
/*  57 */     initializeFields();
/*  58 */     this.run = true;
/*  59 */     new Thread(this).start();
/*     */   }
/*     */ 
/*     */   public void stopApplication() {
/*  63 */     this.run = false;
/*     */   }
/*     */ 
/*     */   public void run()
/*     */   {
...
...
...

And i have to clean all /* */ strings in my classes. Which regex should i use to do this with using Eclipse’s Find/Replace tool?

This is Jd-GUi, I’ve already needed the same regex 🙂

/\*.*?\*/
