VMS Help CC, /DEFINE *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
/DEFINE=(identifier[=definition][,...]) /NODEFINE (D) Performs the same function as the #define preprocessor directive. That is, /DEFINE defines a token string or macro to be substituted for every occurrence of a given identifier in the program. DCL converts all input to uppercase unless it is enclosed in quotation marks. The simplest form of a /DEFINE definition is: /DEFINE=true This results in a definition like the one that would result from the following definition: #define TRUE 1 Macro definitions must be enclosed in quotation marks as shown in the following definition: /DEFINE="funct(a)=a+sin(a)" This definition produces the same results as the following definition: #define funct(a) a+sin(a) When more than one /DEFINE is present on the CC command line or in a single compilation unit, only the last /DEFINE is used. When both /DEFINE and /UNDEFINE are present in a command line, /DEFINE is evaluated before /UNDEFINE. The default is /NODEFINE.
