BloombergLP::balxml::Formatter::addValidComment

Write the specified comment into the stream. Optionally specify forceNewline that specifies if a new line should be added before the comment if it is not already on a new line. If forceNewline is not specified then a new line is inserted for comments not already on a new line. Also optionally specify an omitEnclosingWhitespace that specifies if a space character should be omitted before and after comment. If omitEnclosingWhitespace is not specified then a space character is inserted before and after comment. Return 0 on success, and non-zero value otherwise. Note that a non-zero return value is returned if either comment contains -- or if omitEnclosingWhitespace is true and comment ends with -. Also note that if an element-opening tag is not completed with a >, addValidComment will add >.
