Are there any plans to make a proper preprocessor like #define in C?
No. 1. From http://www.toodarkpark.org/computers/humor/shoot-self-in-foot.html: > Pascal > The compiler won't let you shoot yourself in the foot. 2. The unit concept renders macros often useless.
I’m not saying this is good programming practice or anything but I just had a really annoying copy and paste chore on some temporary code which I could have easily accomplished if I had #define like in C. It’s such a trivial thing to add I wonder why it was never included in Pascal.
Such quick and dirty temp. code can be often easily created by the macro functionality of the use editor. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
