Find and Replace text between /** and */ in Notepad++

Question

I have a large .cpp file where I want to remove all comment between the /** and the */ . This needs to work across lines as well.

I tried doing a regular Find and Replace using \\/.*? */ \\/.*? */ in the Find box and I found this

*/
int totalCount = 0;

/**

Can anyone help?

您可以使用lookbehind和lookahead：

(?<=/\*\*)(.*?)(?=\*/)
