For everyone -
Apologies for the length of this message. If you don't want to look
at the long example, you can skip to the end of the message.
And for the Python gurus among you, if you can spare the time, I
would appreciate any comments (including words like evil and disgusting,
if you think they are applicable :-}) on the example here.

I think everyone who used Python will agree that its syntax is
the best thing going for it. It is very readable and easy
for everyone to learn. But, Python does not a have very good
macro capabilities, unfortunately. I'd like to know if it may
be possible to add a powerful macro system to Python, while
keeping its amazing syntax, and if it could be possible to
add Pythonistic syntax to Lisp or Scheme, while keeping all
of the...

"Movement" seems quite an exaggeration. Maybe 2-3 people made some
experiments, but nobody within the core Python developers seems
to be willing to advocate the introduction of macros.

In a recent post ("About C error" by Victor, 21 Sep 2003), comments were
made about the poster's use of macros. What I would like to know is why
they are considered bad? I'm not referring to their use as 'functions'; I
realise the loss of type-safety and the possible evaluation errors that can
occur. However, what would be the harm with numeric and text literals?
Consider a number that plays a significant role in the implementation of...

Beyond the point of "do something better instead", I'm curious about how
the following syntactical problem can be solved. It should apply equally
to C and C++ as it mainly is a preprocessor-related problem.
I tryed to define something similar to the following example:

On a project I'm working on, I ran across the following macros:
/* assume s is struct stream *, s->p is char, v is unit16_t or uint32_t */
#define in_uint16_le(s,v) { v = *((s)->p++); v += *((s)->p++) << 8; }
#define in_uint32_le(s,v) { in_uint16_le(s,v) \
v += *((s)->p++) << 16; v += *((s)->p++) << 24; }
I'm personally not fond of function-like macros and wanted to turn these
into static inline functions, but I'm having trouble doing...

Is there any hope that new versions of PHP
will support macros similar to C or C++?
I've searched manual and didn't find anything
except define directive, but it can be used
to define constant values only.
Of course it is not THAT neccessary functionality,
but it could be very useful.

hi there,
I am new to c++ and tryig to learn the basics of the c++ concepts.
While I was reading the templates, I realize that the templates are a
syntax that the compilar expands pased upon the type specified. This is
much similar like a macro expansion in C.
can anyone please explain advantages of one over the other ?
Thanks in advance -

When writing C99 code is a reasonable recommendation to use inline
functions instead of macros?
What sort of things is it still reasonable to do using macros? For
example, is it reasonable to write type generic functions macros?
#define CUBE(I) ( (I) * (I) * (I) )
Is there some more concise set of things where inline functions should
be used instead of macros? Multi-statement macros, for example?

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.
Here is my compilation command:

Here is the code in...
