#undef
Remove a #define macro definition
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
#undef <identifier>
Arguments
<identifier> is the name of the manifest constant or pseudofunction
to remove.
Description
#undef removes an identifier defined with the #define directive. After
an #undef, the specified identifier becomes undefined. Use #undef to
remove an identifier before you redefine it with #define, preventing the
compiler warning that occurs when an existing identifier is redefined.
Also, use #undef to make conditional compilation specific to certain
sections of a program.
Examples
. To define and then undefine a manifest constant and a
pseudofunction:
#define K_ESC 27
#define MAX(x, y) IF(x > y, x, y)
.
. <statements>
.
#undef K_ESC
#undef MAX
. To use #undef to undefine an identifier before redefining it:
#define DEBUG
.
. <statements>
.
#undef DEBUG
#define DEBUG .T.
. To undefine an identifier if it exists, and otherwise define
it for later portions of the program file:
#ifdef TEST
#undef TEST
#else
#define TEST
#endif
