Clarification on comment format for message definitions
The message definition language documentation (https://wiki.ros.org/msg) says:
string EXAMPLE="#comments" are ignored, and leading and trailing whitespace removed
string constants are assigned the value of everything to the right of the equals sign, with leading and trailing whitespace removed. As such, you cannot leave a comment on a string constant definition.
This is the only reference in the specification to comments. Are comments otherwise supported? The example given is confusing because we generally say comments are ignored in all languages, but I think it's saying that comment parsing is not in effect for string constant definitions?
Also the example further confuses because of the quotation marks. Are those intended to be used for string constants or not? It seems not...
Are the shortcomings of the format resolved in ROS 2?
