Compiler Warning (level 1) C4010
single-line comment contains line-continuation character
A single-line comment, which is introduced by //, contains a backslash (\) that serves as a line-continuation character. The compiler considers the next line to be a continuation and treats it as a comment.
Some syntax-directed editors do not indicate the line following the continuation character as a comment. Ignore syntax coloring on any lines that cause this warning.
The following sample generates C4010:
// C4010.cpp
// compile with: /WX
int main() {
// the next line is also a comment because of the backslash \
int a = 3; // C4010
a++;
}
