Is there any way to get the preprocessor to produce the current line
number in double quotes? At first sight, gcc seems to replace __LINE__
last (which would make sense), and so won't replace it at all if it's
preceded by '#'.
Background: I want to produce a string giving the current file and
line number in an array of structures, as follows:
---------------
#define OP(z) OP2(__FILE__, __LINE__, z)
#define OP2(x,y,z) { x ", line " #y ": ", z }
struct opinfo {
const char *preamble;
const char *cstr;
};
....
opinfo ops[] = {
OP("wibble1"),
OP("wibble2")
};
---------------
My intention is that this should produce an array of two opinfos which
look like:
opinfo ops[] = {
{ "src.cc, line 10: ", "wibble1" },
{ "src.cc, line 11: ", "wibble2" }
};
However, what it actually produces is:
opinfo ops[] = {
{ "src.cc, line __LINE__: ", "wibble1" },
{ "src.cc, line __LINE__: ", "wibble2" }
};
Any ideas?
Thanks -

#define STRING2(x) #x
#define STRING(x) STRING2(x)
#define STR_LINE STRING(__LINE__ )
the stringize operator is weird, but this seems to work.

Arguments of '#' are not considered for further macro replacement. That's why
your __LINE__ is not replaced with the line number. You need an extra macro
level to give __LINE__ an opportunity to get replaced
#define OP(z) OP2(__FILE__, __LINE__, z)
#define OP2(x,y,z) OP3(x, y, z)
#define OP3(x,y,z) { x ", line " #y ": ", z }

You need to stringize indirectly:
#define OP(z) OP2(__FILE__, __LINE__, z)
#define OP2(x,y,z) { x ", line " STR(y) ": ", z }
#define STR(a) # a

P.S. Sorry for the extensive quoting...

Hi Ng,
i am looking for a method of expanding a macro while the rest of the

I have some code which does macro voodo / ifdef's which i would like to

The Faq pointed me to scpp but i could not compile it. the lex.c

I come from the Visual Foxpro world, which is one reason I love PHP.
VFP is a scripting type language with macro substitution abilities
similar to PHP.
Besides the regular expansion I can do crazy things (VFP uses & instead
of $):
x="sales"
sales="1000"
salestax="8.25"

Hi,
We have bunch of message levels and depending on whether that level is

levels like MSG_LOW, MSG_MED etc.
We want to provide a wrapper API on top of this to print various kinds
of messages and map the wrapper API to either MSG_LOW or MSG_MED. For
example, our wrapper API have macros such as
MSG_FUNCTION_ENTRY, MSG_FUNCTION_EXIT, MSG_STATE_CHANGE,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
