I'm implementing a parser, where there is a lot of different data
elements defined. Now instead of hand-coding X defines, and the massive
number of lines needed for table initialization, I decided to generate
this source instead.
So, I basically used this trick:
void gen_source_function(FILE *out)
{
#define EXPAND_DEF(num, name) generate_source_1(out, num, #name)
#include "iso8583_defs"
#define EXPAND_DEF(num, name) generate_source_2(out, num, #name)
#include "iso8583_defs"
}
where the "iso8583_defs" file, did contain a lot of lines like this:
EXPAND_DEF(1, FIELD_NAME);
EXPAND_DEF(2, ANOTHER_FIELD_NAME);
My question is simply, is the above C code allowed?
