Question

I am very new in Spring world. I was using application.properties to set different port values. How can I comment some code in application.properties file?

Answer 1

You start line comments with #

Answer 2

Use # at start line, which ever property needs to be commentted.

Answer 3

Starting a line with # or !will mark that line as comment.

# This is a comment 
! The exclamation mark can also mark text as comments.

Answer 4

Any line that is pre-fixed with # before the data/code per line in your APPLICATION.PROPERTIES file shall be commented.

For Example:

#datasource.url=jdbc:h2:mem:books_data #spring.datasource.driverClassName=org.h2.Driver

The two lines in the APPLICATION.PROPERTIES are treated as comments.
