Description Jan Becicka 2000-04-28 23:11:22 UTC 
1. Create Class
2. Create Method
3. Comment this method this stupid way

/**/
/* some comment*/

void somemethod(){

}

If somemethod() is deleted from Explorer, /* some comment */ is also removed, because parser think, that
/**/
/* some comment */
is JavaDoc comment.

[Svata] The fact parsing engine recognizes /**/ as (empty) JavaDoc comment is probably the designed behaviour (it in fact recognizes all //*/*+/ expressions as empty JavaDoc comments). However the del
etion is not desired.
