Defines in files included by preprocessor are not honoured [message #576154]

Hi. I have a somewhat important problem.

I have a set of defines that depend of the definition of other defines. The latter can be defined in the project, while the former can only be defined in the files. As they are needed in too many files of the project, I decided to create a file and write them there, and then just include that file for every project file that need those defines,

But the defines that are in the included file are not honoured,

Is this a bug of current MJT preprocessor, or it is designed this way? Can somebody give me a workaround if it is just a bug?

Thank you very much in advance, I really would appreciate a solution, because as the project advances, the need of defines is bigger and I don't want to have to write them all in every file, as it could be really messy.

Thanks again.

David Lucena.

Hello David,

In order to help us to better understand the problem, could you send us
some examples of defines that depends on definition of other defines?

Thanks,

Hi Diego, after adding suport for //#preprocess to the antenna preprocessor in order to make MTJ compatible with Blackberry tools, I have also solved the //#include issue, by merging the definitions from the included file into the current definitions.

If you need the code I would be please to zip it and send it to you. I don't know how to extract a patch file, nor I don't know if I have the tools for this, so I think it's better for you to do so.

It would be nice that this feature could be tested and included asap in a MTJ release.

Thank you.

Hi David,

thanks for your effort, but i cant apply your modification into mtj. First you must submit it to antenna team to be integrate. I'd suggest you to send this directly to Omry and he can arrange a new release of the antenna preprocessor.

After he release an public version on the antenna website, I'll open an request to the Eclipse IP team to include this newer version on mtj.

I have submitted some patches to Omry, but as he is not in the project anymore I also have asked him to put me in contact with the current administrator/mantainer/updater so I will not bother him anymore.

I'll tell you more when I know.
