Subject: [9fans] plan9's C compiler and // comments
Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2003 03:49:01 +0300

The C compiler accepts '//..' C++ -like comments, but not in '#define'
directives.

-----------------------
#include <u.h>
#include <libc.h>

// this one OK
#ifndef FOO
#define EXITS	"wow!"	// this won't work
#endif // this one OK too

void main() { exits(EXITS); }
-----------------------

Is this deliberate behaviour ?

(sorry if it's already fixed, my plan9 is a bit out of date).

Thanks,
Adi
