Ok in Code blocks I was commenting my code instuff and since I have a computer running xp when it is bult for winNT or win95 and a compaqu keyboard I have many tyPos, freezes, pieces of curcutry on my driveway under my window I accsedentaly typed three / in the comment and codeblocks made it a shade of perrywikle and when the fouth / came up it went back to gray.
So my question is what does /// mean in C++ I searched comments and escape characters but nothing came up.

Comments with three slashes are used by the compiler to create documentation and class-diagram properties.

You can do this backwards also by creating a class diagram and populating the comments fields. You will see those attributes populated in your code.

I have never used a class diagram in C++ code (only C#)
