Description Simon Gunzenreiner CLA 2002-05-22 10:16:15 EDT 
If the String
   String s = "*/";
is commented by /**  */:
    /**
    String s = "*/";
    */
I get the following compile problem:
String literal is not properly closed by a double-quote

(I am using F1)
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2002-05-22 10:27:14 EDT 
This is legite compiler behavior (javac reports same error).
