Question

Is a comment of the form

/*:[url=users/%id]:*/

going to be a problem with any documentation toolkits out there (especially for PHP)? Or any other comment pre-preprocessors? (Related to http://code.google.com/p/caret/ )

Answer 1

Going by phpDoc, that shouldn’t be a problem.

phpDoc reads from comments defined with a starting /**, not /*.

An example of a phpDoc comment entry would be:

/**
 * Description of this function
 * @param int Number in
 * @return int|string number or string out
 */

Which shouldn’t clash with a comment that you have said.
