            Bug ID: 300530
          Severity: normal
           Version: git master
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdevelop-bugs@kdevelop.org
           Summary: Backslash continuations of single-line comments not
                    supported
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: nicolas.alvarez@gmail.com
          Hardware: Compiled Sources
            Status: NEW
         Component: Language Support: CPP
           Product: kdevelop

When a single-line comment (ie. //stuff ) has a backslash at the end of the
line, it should be parsed as a line continuation, thus making the following
line a comment too. KDevelop doesn't support this.

Example:

// this is a comment. \
int a;
int b;

In this code, the variable 'a' doesn't exist, since its declaration is actually
in a comment. The Katepart syntax highlighter for C++ handles this correctly:
the "int a;" line is colored in gray like the previous line. However, KDevelop
doesn't understand the backslash, and highlights 'a' in bold green as a
variable declaration.
