Tech Tip: Why Comment Blocks may not be Recognized
PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 18 | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: April 30, 2020

Comment blocks may not be recognized in v18 when upgrading from older databases. An example of this is shown below.



If your multi-line comments are not being recognized and the database has been upgraded from a version before 4D v15, check the 'Save methods as Unicode' option in the Compatibility tab of the Database Settings. This option must be turned on for multi-line comments to function properly.



In 4D v15 and later, methods are automatically saved in Unicode. For databases created before v15, this option will need to be turned on manually.
