Double slash // is recognized as comment in Ruby code

[hachi8833]

Version 9.8.0 "New York"

As shown the screenshot above, double slash "//" is recognized as comment in Ruby code.

def match?(string, pos = 0)
  !!match(string, pos)
end unless //.respond_to?(:match?)

*"//" is a representation of Regex object in the case.

Thank you,

It was indeed a bug, thanks for reporting it! Although judging by your screenshot alone in your case the code was also mis-detected as some other language. Hopefully, the fix would also nudge the detection towards Ruby as well (it should, I just don't know if it'd be enough enough :-) )

I should've posted with the actual code. Sorry.
Looks like the language of the code is incorrectly detected as you guessed.

• Actual page: https://techracho.bpsinc.jp/hachi8833/2016_11_15/28993
  • code part:

```ruby
def match?(string, pos = 0)
  !!match(string, pos)
end unless //.respond_to?(:match?)
```

Just now I found that the language detection looks duplicated:

pre class says "hjls go" while codeclass says "ruby".

I hope this helps.

Best,
