1. Some parts may be separated: - load_file_to_string in cpp_iteration_context.hpp may be part of string_algos
Could you elaborate?
Looking again - not really worth of troubles.
- time_conversion_helper.hpp (don't know where to put it but it would come very handy many times)
Hmmm... Where does this belong? Any ideas?
Maybe as small, standalone utility in date-time. ________________________________________________________
9. Wave driver Win32 execuable should be available in Boost, version that doesn't need any external DLLs.
That's one of the goals. As you may have noted, the wave driver already resides in the boost/tools directory and the Jamfiles are setup such, that all libraries are linked statically.
Very good. I didn't notice (having it in tools/). ________________________________________________________
Maybe also "expand" pragma could be added, which simply expands block of code, w/o explaining how.
Could you elaborate, please?
When I want to check how preprocessed source looks like now I do things like cl /E xyz.cpp and then search through multimegabyte file. If I could have ... #pragma wave expand .. what is here gets expanded but the rest not #pragma wave expand-end .... This would help to avoid these huge files when I am not interested in trace output. ________________________________________________________
I would like to have something as my own private preprocessor:
@@ifdef CUSTOMER_X .... @@else .... @@endif
@@ifdef CUSTOMER_Y @@include "licensing_info_text" #include <...> ... @@endif
Could it be described how/whether it can be done with Wawe? Or maybe even sample.
By default Wave respects the standard directive syntax only (starting with a '#'). But you can implement this very easily by providing your own lexing component, which fakes the pp tokens (used internally for #include, #define etc.) when recognising the @@include, @@define etc. in the input stream.
Maybe docs could give some hints what is needed to touch. ________________________________________________________ One possible feature: would it make sense to have macro as __TU_FILE__ which always expands into the name of "initially processed file"? Say one may like to automatically register modules where certain feature is used. (No idea how this would play with precompiled headers.) /Pavel
