It is called a macro processor because it allows +you to define <em>macros</em>, which are brief abbreviations for longer +constructs. +</p> +<p>The C preprocessor is intended to be used only with C, C++, and +Objective-C source code. In the past, it has been abused as a general +text processor. It will choke on input which does not obey C’s lexical +rules. For example, apostrophes will be interpreted as the beginning of +character constants, and cause errors. Also, you cannot rely on it +preserving characteristics of the input which are not significant to +C-family languages. If a Makefile is preprocessed, all the hard tabs +will be removed, and the Makefile will not work. +</p> +<p>Having said that, you can often get away with using cpp on things which +are not C. Other Algol-ish programming languages are often safe +(Ada, etc.) So is assembly, with caution. <samp>-traditional-cpp</samp> +mode preserves more white space, and is otherwise more permissive. Many +of the problems can be avoided by writing C or C++ style comments +instead of native language comments, and keeping macros simple. +</p> +<p>Wherever possible, you should use a preprocessor geared to the language +you are writing in. Modern versions of the GNU assembler have macro +facilities. Most high level programming languages have their own +conditional compilation and inclusion mechanism. If all else fails, +try a true general text processor, such as GNU M4. +</p> +<p>C preprocessors vary in some details. This manual discusses the GNU C +preprocessor, which provides a small superset of the features of ISO +Standard C. In its default mode, the GNU C preprocessor does not do a +few things required by the standard. These are features which are +rarely, if ever, used, and may cause surprising changes to the meaning +of a program which does not expect them. To get strict ISO Standard C, +you should use the <samp>-std=c90</samp>, <samp>-std=c99</samp>, +<samp>-std=c11</samp> or <samp>-std=c17</samp> options, depending +on which version of the standard you want. To get all the mandatory +diagnostics, you must also use <samp>-pedantic</samp>. See <a href="Invocation.html#Invocation">Invocation</a>. +</p> +<p>This manual describes the behavior of the ISO preprocessor. To +minimize gratuitous differences, where the ISO preprocessor’s +behavior does not conflict with traditional semantics, the +traditional preprocessor should behave the same way. The various +differences that do exist are detailed in the section <a href="Traditional-Mode.html#Traditional-Mode">Traditional Mode</a>. +</p> +<p>For clarity, unless noted otherwise, references to ‘<samp>CPP</samp>’ in this +manual refer to GNU CPP. +</p> +<table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> +<tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="Character-sets.html#Character-sets" accesskey="1">Character sets</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> +</td></tr> +<tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="Initial-processing.html#Initial-processing" accesskey="2">Initial processing</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> +</td></tr> +<tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="Tokenization.html#Tokenization" accesskey="3">Tokenization</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> +</td></tr> +<tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="The-preprocessing-language.html#The-preprocessing-language" accesskey="4">The preprocessing language</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> +</td></tr> +</table> + +<hr> +<div class="header"> +<p> +Next: <a href="Header-Files.html#Header-Files" accesskey="n" rel="next">Header Files</a>, Previous: <a href="index.html#Top" accesskey="p" rel="previous">Top</a>, Up: <a href="index.html#Top" accesskey="u" rel="up">Top</a> [<a href="index.html#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="Index-of-Directives.html#Index-of-Directives" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> +</div> + + + +</body> +</html> |
