Hi,
In my lex file, when i compiled with lex tool, I can write comment this way
/* */. But if i try with flex, i got errors (unrecognize rule). I tried with
// but i got the same error. What is the syntax to write comments with flex?

Thanks

RE: Comments

Try adapting this mantra from TFM*:

"Lines that start with whitespace are copied verbatim to the C file."

* Actually, from the vintage-but-still-accurate O'Reilly book "lex &
yacc" page 147
