Comment line in IFC

1

Just wanna check if this is the right way to implement comments in IFC. Is it correct?

That’s correct.

A comment shall be encoded as a solidus asterisk "/*" followed by any number of characters from the basic alphabet, and terminated by an asterisk solidus "*/". Any occurrence of solidus asterisk following the first occurrence shall not be significant, i.e. comments cannot be nested. All graphic characters appearing inside a comment shall not be significant to the exchange structure and are only intended to be read by humans.

Thanks for the confirmation. Chatgpt was right :slight_smile: I was told that the degree notation is not valid. Better to write down: degree

Also true, in edition 2 of the spf spec that we use in IFC, only the ascii character codes 0x20 - 0x7e are valid ( !"#$%&\'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~`). Other characters need to be encoded.
