macro code

Hi,
I want to find out how much time is spent in macro-code, without having to
change all macro-definitions to include some tracking code.
Thus when compiling a file, the preprocessor would (during macro-expansion),
add some extra code, to make it easier to see at runtime (using some
profiling tool) how often certain macro's were used.

For example this macro:
#define P(a,b,c) \
a=1;\
b=2;\
c=3;

would be changed by the preprocessor to this:

#define P(a,b,c) \
P_counter++; \
func_P_macro_be gin() ; \
a=1; \
b=2; \
c=3; \
func_P_macro_en d() ;

and then used during preprocessing.

Is there a preprocessor option (preferably Linux) or preprocessor-like
tool available that would achieve that ?

Thanks and regards,
Marco.

Here's a proposed Q&A for the FAQ based on a couple recent threads. Appropriate comments appreciated X.Y: Why doesn't Python have macros like in Lisp or Scheme? Before answering that, a clarification on what 'macro' means. A Lisp macro is a way of modifying code when that code is first defined. It can rearrange the structure of the code, and add and remove parts of it. Unlike C's #define macro language, Lisp macros understand the...

But, Python does not a have very good macro capabilities, unfortunately.

In Access 95/97 I used to be able to create pull down menus (File,Edit ...) from a macro. It seems there used to be some wizard for that. However in Access 2000 it seems you have to build your menus by customizing a toolbar. With this method you have to create a separate macro for every single menu and sub menu. The old method would allow me to include several menus (File/ print/ page setup ...) all within one macro. Now it seems I...

Dear NG, Can someone assist me with writing the little code that is needed to run an update table query each time the database is opened? From what I've been able to glean from this group, the Autoexec Macro looks like the way to go. Could someone please assist? Thank you very much! Mike

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.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
