Re: [foxboro] A Comment about comments

Hi List,

On a related topic...

Be forewarned that preprocessor directives are handled differently in =
the
new IACC configurator.  You can no longer use non-valued #defines (i.e.
#define WHATHAVEYOU).  All #defines need to have a value (i.e. #define
WHATHAVEYOU YOUHAVEIT).  Strange, but true.

Also, #defines are no longer case sensitive (according to the e-docs).  =
In
other words #define ABCDE 1234 will overwrite #define Abcde 2345 (or =
cause
compilation errors).

There are a few other quirks about HLBL within IACC, like "where the =
heck is
the compilation listing"?  This one is covered in section 9.4.2 of the
version 2.0 Release Notes.

A final tidbit: HLBL #includes can now only reference IACC "text =
objects".
You can no longer use the good old /opt/fox/ciocfg/sequeninclude =
directory
or whatever your favorite code repository was.

Of course this works only if 'notdef' is not #define'd to something. :)=20
That's why some people tend to use '#ifdef 0' instead.
