I programmed some stuff in C for X, now I want to convert it to pascal.
I did a very small program, but for every macro in C I had to write a
function, or I have to use a long
expression that's repeated very often (for example ScreenOfDisplay). In
xlib.pp all #defines from C are
comments.
Is there allready a unit with all this #defines rewritten as functions?
FPC supports some macro's, but only inside the unit where you defined
them, if I understand it right.
This makes very little sense, in my opinion, this type of macro's are
almost useless.
Why can't FPC support using macro's also outside the unit?
in such a way that I can have:
unit macros;
... macro definitions ...
begin
end.
unit usemacros;
uses macros;
... here I can use all macros definitions.
begin
end.
