The end column of the declaration within the source file. This value is 1-based, and
exclusive. (The final character of the declaration is on the column before this value.)
Comments appearing before the declaration. Never null, but may be empty. Multi-line comments
are represented as a newline-separated string. Leading whitespace and the comment marker ("//")
are removed from each line.
public IReadOnlyList<string> LeadingDetachedComments { get; }
Comments appearing before the declaration, but separated from it by blank
lines. Each string represents a newline-separated paragraph of comments.
Leading whitespace and the comment marker ("//") are removed from each line.
The list is never null, but may be empty. Likewise each element is never null, but may be empty.
Comments appearing after the declaration. Never null, but may be empty. Multi-line comments
are represented as a newline-separated string. Leading whitespace and the comment marker ("//")
are removed from each line.
