I saw all of the threads on this topic in 2011, but, figured I would ask here if it had changed, and I was just doing it wrong. We are in the process of porting Minix 3 source to Free Pascal (Andrew T. tells me it can’t be done, and I know FPC can handle it). I just wanted to keep the C macros close so he can see I did an automated conversion not a logic conversion.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D'>Thanks to everyone else on this topic, but “not supported” is fine with me.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D'>Ozz<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><a name="_MailEndCompose"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></a></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'> fpc-devel [mailto:fpc-devel-bounces@lists.freepascal.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Sven Barth via fpc-devel<br><b>Sent:</b> Sunday, February 25, 2018 3:17 AM<br><b>To:</b> FPC developers' list <fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org><br><b>Cc:</b> Sven Barth <pascaldragon@googlemail.com><br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [fpc-devel] MACRO - correct syntax?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Am 25.02.2018 03:01 schrieb "Ozz Nixon" <<a href="mailto:ozznixon@gmail.com">ozznixon@gmail.com</a>>:<o:p></o:p></p><blockquote style='border:none;border-left:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0in'><p class=MsoNormal><br>{$MACRO ON}<br><br>{$DEFINE _CTASSERT(X,Y,Z):=assert(x=y,z);}<br><br>Begin<br> _CTASSERT(1,1,'Constant failed.');<br>end.<o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Macros with arguments are not supported. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Regards, <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Sven <o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></body></html>
