How to extract arguments from a macro function call

[haari]

Hi All,

I need help related to Macros in C.

This is my code:

#ifndef checkTrace
#define checkTrace(fCall)      if(1){printf("function called from checkTrace is:");}
#endif

what i am looking for is :

suppose if am calling checkTrace(getchar()); i want to print "getchar() is called from checkTrace macro".

Like this whatever the func called by checkTrace macro, i want to print the message like above mentioning the func called by checkTrace()

Please any body let me know how i can do this in CVI?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Harika

I think what you need is the "stringification operator" : #

Check this:

#define checkTrace(fCall) if(1){printf("function called from checkTrace is: '%s'", #fCall);}

checkTrace(getchar())
