ABL electronic PIC12 Personal Computer User Manual


 
A macro won’t be expanded during its own expansion (so #define MACRO
MACRO
won’t expand indefinitely).
Let’s have an example:
/* Here are some simple macros: */
#define ERR_MSG "Out of range!"
#define EVERLOOP for( ; ; )
/* which we could use like this: */
main() {
EVERLOOP {
...
if (error) {Lcd_Out_Cp(ERR_MSG); break;}
...
}
}
Attempting to redefine an already defined macro identifier will result in a warning
unless the new definition is exactly the same token-by-token definition as the
existing one. The preferred strategy where definitions might exist in other header
files is as follows:
#ifndef BLOCK_SIZE
#define BLOCK_SIZE 512
#endif
The middle line is bypassed if BLOCK_SIZE is currently defined; if BLOCK_SIZE
is not currently defined, the middle line is invoked to define it.
