Is there a way to put comments in an .icd file?

I think I know the answer to this, but is it possible to put comments into an .icd file?  I create many ICD files for Camera Link cameras (using both the NI Camera File Generator and by editing the text) and it would be very helpful if I could place comments in the file itself.

 

Thanks, Bruce

I think they are a form of ini file.  If this is the case, try semicolon before the comment:

 

; comment

Thanks for taking the time to think about this issue.

 

I tried your suggestion and now when trying to load the file in MAX it gives an IMAQ Error, "Error 0xBFF60108  The camera file does not support the current interface type."  I've tried many different forms of comments and none seem to work (; \\ -- %).  I am only way I am successfully able to use comments is if I put them at the very end of the file, after the last "{".

 

Thanks anyway!

Bruce
