I guess all it takes to fix this is to rewrite line 35 in alignment_of_test.cpp
#define ALIGNOF(x) align_calc<x>::get()
as
#define ALIGNOF(x) align_calc< x>::get()
(note the extra blank). OK to commit?
I think the other side of "x" needs space protection too, from ":>" and ">>".
This could never occur in this particular case (see the code), but in general, yes.
So the solution could be changed (again) to:
#define ALIGNOF(x) align_calc< x >::get()
BTW, can parentheses be used around "x" as better protection instead? Or does that work only for objects?
The latter.
Yes, please! (It's a bug in the compiler/preprocessor, of course).
Not necessarily.
Sure it is.
It depends on where digraph expansion is supposed to occur relative to macro expansion.
During tokenization, which happens before the macro expansion; see the standard. -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
