The custom IDL pre-processor is my favourite option. One of the biggest advantages (apart from being much much faster), is that it can also include a built in optimizer and we will have more coherent errors output earlier. That is by far the biggest problem with the other three options.
And the custom IDL pre-processor is my *least* favorite option :-) For the simple fact that it will slow adoption. As it will require another tool people will need to use. And that is especially painful for IDE users, where they may not have an easy way to change the tool functionality. I still prefer the current, CPP multiple macro, IDL because it presents many more option for use and doesn't require additional resources. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq
