Hi, attached a document describing the current macro layer of IMCC.
On the proposed modifications to macros, I have reservations on the
automatic munging of .local variable names. Macros are simple
parameterized substitutions. If someone includes a '.local' in a macro,
it's likely that they'll expect it to appear literally in the body:
.macro declare_my_locals(x)
.local int $x
.endm
.sub bar
.declare_my_locals(foo)
foo = 5
print foo
...
.end
And unlikely that they'll want it to appear munged for a particular
macro name:
.sub bar
.declare_my_locals(foo)
local_declare_my_locals_foo = 5
print local_declare_my_locals_foo
...
.end
Comments?
