How to comment code in blades like laravel 4?

Question

I have migrated my app from laravel 4.2 to laravel 5

I am currently having this problem, when even I have old comments like this:

{{--{{link_to_route('language.select', 'English', array('en'))}}--}}

Will result into error at laravel 5, I will have this error:

FatalErrorException in 18b6386ebc018eb0c0e76f105eba4286 line 263:
syntax error, unexpected '{'

which is compiled into:

 <?php echo --{{link_to_route('language.select', 'English', array('en')); ?>--}}

I already added laravel 4 backward comparability support at register@ServiceProvider as:

\Blade::setRawTags('{{', '}}');
\Blade::setContentTags('{{{', '}}}');
\Blade::setEscapedContentTags('{{{', '}}}');

but how can I add laravel 4 backward comparability for comments {{-- --}} ?

edit:

how to comment this in laravel 5:

<li {{ (Request::is('/') ? ' class="active"' : '') }}><a href="{{{ URL::to('') }}}">{{trans('messages.Home')}}</a></li>

Answer 1

Since you change your content tags from {{ to {{{ comment tags are now {{{-- not {{--
