Are you familiar with the c language? The compiler is gcc or g++ for c++. Say you had a hello.c file, to compile you would type: 'gcc hello.c'. This will produce the executable file 'a.out'. To run it, type: './a.out'.

Hope this would help des12...try scanning the file char by char...i mean read the file character by character and write it to a new file...check if the character is '/'...
Case 1 : if the next character is '*' then don't dont write characters that follow till you encounter a '*' followed by '/'
Case 2 : if the next character is '/' then don't write characters that follow till you encounter a new line character '\n'
At last remove the original file and rename the new file
Think you wont need any code
