I'm writing a simple macro to show TRACE information.
This is what I'm using ,
#ifdef __DEBUG__
#define TRACE { PrintErrorMsg("Trace exception at " __FILE__ "LineNo:"##(__LINE__) "Function: " __FUNCTION__ " " );}
#else
#define TRACE
#endif
This is working with __FILE__, but it doesn't seems to work with __LINE__.
Any idea how could I deal with this. I already tried stringing operator too. Which is as bellow
#ifdef __DEBUG__
#define TRACE { PrintErrorMsg("Trace exception at " __FILE__ "LineNo:"#(__LINE__) "Function: " __FUNCTION__ " " );}
#else
#define TRACE
#endif
and without parms and with double parms , ex - __LINE__ or ((__LINE__))
Any idea how could I deal with this problem?
And I come up with this,
#ifdef __DEBUG__
#define ERROR_MSG_BUF_SIZE 1024
#define TRACE { char * error_msg_buffer = new char[ERROR_MSG_BUF_SIZE]; \
sprintf(error_msg_buffer,"Trace Exception at file: %s ,Line : %d , Function %s \n",__FILE__,__LINE__,__FUNCTION__);\
PrintErrorMsg(error_msg_buffer );\
delete[] error_msg_buffer;}
#else
#define TRACE
#endif
But I want to do it without using sprintf, just only by stringing and token pasting.
You need this kind of silliness, unfortunately.
#include <stdio.h>
#define TRACE2(f,l) printf("I am at file: " f " and line: " #l "\n")
#define TRACE1(f,l) TRACE2(f,l)
#define TRACE() TRACE1(__FILE__, __LINE__)
int main(void)
{
TRACE();
TRACE();
}
