Using logical operators with macros

I have a piece of code which I want to include if either of two macros are defined

#ifdef MACRO1 || MACRO2

void foo()
{


}

#endif

How do I accomplish this in C?

Solution

  • Besides #ifdef, the preprocessor supports the more general #if instruction; actually, #ifdef MACRO is a shortcut for #if defined(MACRO), where defined is a "preprocessor function" that returns 1 if the macro is defined; so, you can do:

    #if defined(MACRO1) || defined(MACRO2)

void foo()
{


}

#endif
