In other words, when the compiler starts building your code, no #define statements or anything like that is left. A good way to understand what the preprocessor does to your code is to get hold of the preprocessed output and look at it.
How can I use #if inside #define in the C preprocessor? Asked 15 years, 8 months ago Modified 10 months ago Viewed 51k times
The question is if users can define new macros in a macro, not if they can use macros in macros.
#define simply substitutes a name with its value. Furthermore, a #define 'd constant may be used in the preprocessor: you can use it with #ifdef to do conditional compilation based on its value, or use the stringizing operator # to get a string with its value.
What is the point of #define in C++? I've only seen examples where it's used in place of a "magic number" but I don't see the point in just giving that value to a variable instead.
0 in C or C++ #define allows you to create preprocessor Macros. In the normal C or C++ build process the first thing that happens is that the PreProcessor runs, the preprocessor looks though the source files for preprocessor directives like #define or #include and then performs simple operations with them.
Which one is better to use among the below statements in C? static const int var = 5; or #define var 5 or enum { var = 5 };
For example, never define a macro like this: #define DANGER 60 + 2 This can potentially be dangerous when we do an operation like this: int wrong_value = DANGER * 2; // Expecting 124 Instead, def...
As the title says; what's the difference in practice between the inline keyword and the #define preprocessor directive?
The #define directive is a preprocessor directive; the preprocessor replaces those macros by their body before the compiler even sees it. Think of it as an automatic search and replace of your source code. A const variable declaration declares an actual variable in the language, which you can use... well, like a real variable: take its address, pass it around, use it, cast/convert it, etc. Oh ...
