RE: Info.plist preprocessor macro expansion, space between tokens

  • Thread-topic: Info.plist preprocessor macro expansion, space between tokens

Thanks, Greg.  I did try some token concatenation experimentation.  If I
use ## in the Info.plist itself, it ignores the concatenation and
instead outputs the '##'s themselves.

<string>MAJOR##.##MINOR##.##MICRO</string> results in 1##.##2##.##.3

If I do the token concatenation in the Info.plist prefix header then
concatenation is interpreted correctly, but unfortunately I get "does
not give a valid preprocessing token" errors because of the "." dot.

#define VERSIONSTR MAJOR##.##MINOR##.##MICRO

<string>MAJOR##.##MINOR##.##MICRO</string> ?

This assumes the plist preprocessor is using standard C notations.
"Token pasting" or "concatenation" is standard C preprocessor notation.
E.g.:

<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/gcc-4.0.1/cpp/C
oncatenation.html>


Also, you have backslashes in your end-tags that need to be /'s.
