From: "David E. Weekly" <david@there.com> To: "Andrew Pinski" <pinskia@physics.uc.edu> Cc: <gcc-gnats@gcc.gnu.org> Subject: RE: preprocessor/7452: Preprocessor doesn't allow pasting " foo-> ## BAR " Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2002 20:51:01 -0700 Andrew, Thank you for your patient explanation. If I do wish to use the modern preprocessor, is it possible in any way to have some: #define foo(A) { bar-> ## A() } foo( methodOfBar ); Or, without resorting to the "traditional" CPP, can it simply not be done? Yours, David E. Weekly Software Developer There, Inc. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Pinski [mailto:pinskia@physics.uc.edu] Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2002 8:42 PM To: David E. Weekly Cc: gcc-gnats@gcc.gnu.org Subject: Re: preprocessor/7452: Preprocessor doesn't allow pasting " foo-> ## BAR " Importance: High It is illegal because you are trying to paste together two tokens which do not make one token in terms of the C standard. It has been permanently removed because gcc uses a new preprocessor, this has been this way since 3.0. You might get what you expect from using the option -traditional-cpp. Thanks, Andrew Pinski On Tuesday, July 30, 2002, at 11:30 , David E.
