关于C预处理器的维基百科页面提到了这一点,但IMO并不清楚:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_preprocessor#X-Macros
我为我的小组写了一篇关于它的论文;如果你愿意,可以随意使用它。
/* X-macros are a way to use the C pre-processor to provide tuple-like
* functionality that would not otherwise be easy to implement in C.
* Any time you find yourself writing a comment that says something
* like "These values must be kept in sync with the values in typedef enum
* foo_t", or adding a new item to a list and copying and pasting functions
* to handle it, then X-macros are probably a better way to implement the
* behaviour you want.
*/
/* Begin with the main definition of the table of tuples. This can be directly
* in the header file, or in a separate #included template file. This example
* is from some hardware revision reporting code.
*/

* Board versions
* Upper bound resistor value, hardware version, hardware version string
*/
