'Declaration

Dim instance As CommentInfo
public struct CommentInfo
public value class CommentInfo
JScript supports the use of structures, but not the declaration of new ones.
Remarks
Comments are lines or blocks of code that a compiler or interpreter ignores. There are two types of comments supported in the managed package framework language service classes:
Block Comments:
These are comments with beginning and ending delimiters and can part of a line or multiple lines. For example, in C#, block comments start with /* and end with */.
Line Comments:
These are comments that have a beginning delimiter and go to the end of the line. For example, in C#, line comments start with //. In Visual Basic, a line comment starts with '.
Notes to Implementers:
If your language defines comments other than with the characters used by C#, you must derive a class from the Source class, override the GetCommentFormat method to instantiate a CommentInfo class and fill it in with the comment characters for your language.
Notes to Callers:
An instance of the CommentInfo class is created and returned from the GetCommentFormat method on the Source class. The base class instance of CommentInfo is filled in with C#/C++-style comment characters.
