Subject: [Linux-ia64] Inquiry on the pre-processor
Date: Tue, 03 Jul 2001 23:41:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-ia64-105590693005816@msgid-missing> (raw)
The C preprocessor doesn't recognize macros that are suffixed on words. It
likes to substitute whole words. Does anyone know a trick to get it to
substitute text for suffixes? Someone has to have done this before.
What I want to do specifically is for ia32 assembly language, but the
question is about preprocessing in general. On certain assembly instruction
opcodes, I want to suffix a macro that can be changed to the letter "b,"
"w," or "l," so that a single source program can operate on different sized
operands.
Thanks,
David Robboy
