* **Language Service:** The "Language Service" exposes an additional layer around the core compiler bibeline that are best suiting editor-like applications.
The language service supports the common set of a typical editor operations like statement completions, signature help, code formatting and outlining, colorization, etc... Basic re-factoring like rename, Debugging interface helpers like validating breakpoints as well as TypeScript-specific features like support of incremental compilation (--watch equivalent on the command-line).
The language service is designed to efficiently handle scenarios with files changing over time within a long-lived compilation context; in that sense, the language service provides a slightly different perspective about working with programs and source files from that of the other compiler interfaces.

Appropriately, calling `getTrailingCommentRanges` on the end of the debugger statement will extract the `/*hello*/` comment.
In the event that you are concerned with richer information of the token stream, `createScanner` also has a `skipTrivia` flag which you can set to `false`, and use `setText`/`setTextPos` to scan at different points in a file.
