// Code generated by muli-line pre-processor macros is hard to read after
|
||||
// pre-processing.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// When you want to check pre-processed code, e.g. for debugging or
|
||||
// to understand what's going on, do the following:
|
||||
//
|
||||
// 1) Add the compiler command line definition
|
||||
// -DKALEIDOSCOPE_ENABLE_MACRO_NEWLINE_SUBSTITUTION
|
||||
// This prevents the __NL__ macro being defined below.
|
||||
// 2) Generate the preprocessed code (it will contain a lot of __NL__ definitions).
|
||||
// 3) Open the pre-processed code in your favorite editor.
|
||||
// 3.1) Replace all __NL__ with newline characters.
|
||||
// In vim the command would be ':%s/__NL__/\r/g'.
|
||||
// 3.2) Autocorrect code-indenting to improve readability. This is necessary
|
||||
// as pre-processor macros remove all whitespaces at the beginning of lines.
|
||||
// With vim, the command gg=G helps (just type the characters one after
|
||||
// the other).
|
||||
// 4) Don't forget to remove the
|
||||
// -DKALEIDOSCOPE_ENABLE_MACRO_NEWLINE_SUBSTITUTION
|
||||
// from your compiler command line. Else the code won't compile.
