Message-ID: <4A675F89.50506@nortel.com> (raw)
I'm hoping someone can help me out.
I've got a bunch of code that call a bunch of different wrapper
routines, with varying numbers of arguments. Depending on whether a
compile flag is set, I want to do some stuff before and after calling
the "real" routine. I can do this easily enough with a macro.
#if FLAG
#define func_wrapper(args...) \
do { \
dostuff(); \
func(args); \
do_more_stuff(); \
} while (0)
#else
#define func_wrapper(args...) func(args)
#endif
However, given that there are hundreds of functions, I'd like to
generate these macros with another macro, sort of like:
#if FLAG
#define WRAPPER(func) \
#define func # _wrapper(args...) \
do { \
dostuff(); \
func(args); \
do_more_stuff(); \
} while (0)
#else
#define WRAPPER(func) \
#define func ## _wrapper(args...) func(args)
#endif
Where I could then do
WRAPPER(func1)
WRAPPER(func2)
...
WRAPPER(func100)
However, the preprocessor complains about having that "#" in the macro
body where it isn't used for stringification.
Anyone have any ideas how to accomplish this? I had considered writing
an app to programmatically generate an include file as a precursor to
actually compiling the real app, but I was hoping there was a more
elegant solution.
Thanks,
Chris
