> You are definitely describing the behavior of the C++ preprocessor. That behavior is also described at least as far back as Harbison & Steele 5th edtion 2002, and K&R 2nd edition 1988[*]. But I know for a fact that I have used C compilers where #if with an undefined name was a compilation error. Can't remember for sure if that was the 90s or 80s, but they did exist at some point in the past.
