Synopsis

Declared in <balxml_formatter_prettyimpl.h>

static
int
addValidComment(
    std::ostream& stream,
    State* state,
    std::string_view const& comment,
    bool forceNewline = true,
    bool omitEnclosingWhitespace = false);

Description

Formatting depends on the specified state, which is updated accordingly. If the optionally specified forceNewline is true 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 >.

Return Value

0 on success, and a non-zero value otherwise
