cross posted at 8052.com I have a module, which is used in four different products, that has way too many #ifdef's to be readable in debug and, at the same time, there is so much common code that making four separate modules is not the right approach. I have used all the "usual tricks" (separating what is only for one to a separate libray module, making some conditionals inside a macro etc) What I wonder is: is there some software that can "cut type x" out of the source before compilation. Since I am using a .bat operation (no IDE), a free standing program would be fine. This, probably, would require replacing the #ifdef with somrthing such a program "understood" no problem. Erik just so you know: I can NOT use the IDE due to its inability to make lots of slightly different builds in one go from the same source. Not a complaint, just a fact.
a 3-line sed script should do it excuse a poor cleaning woman (I do not do windows) what is a "sed script". Erik
(I do not do windows) That's good, since sed isn't a part of Windows. It should be found on most flavors of unix and its derivatives, though.
And Cygwin on Windoze?
And Windows-native (i.e., w/o Cygwin).
