Why does Visual Studio 2015 select the character set /// different color, not like // , /////////// or or /**/ ? Have some special uses?

  • I do not recommend using a comment of this type /////////// in the gcc compiler may cause Warning or even not compile the project. - NewSheriff
  • I advise you to install Tomato Assist. Ideally highlights the text and gives hints. - NewSheriff

Comments like /// and /** */ are used in documentation generation systems such as Doxygen.

    Used for automated documentation. Like XML documentation. Link to MSDN .
