Here is a long thread on the subject: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/1c9078176b172e1a/235bae6530ee7e74?show_docid=235bae6530ee7e74
There are Java projects that use various preprocessors. The lack of a standard one is a problem. AFAIK Sun's WORA ideology ran against the need for a preprocessor, although many developers think that mobile platforms have taken a big bite out of WORA. Modern software development methodologies, such as refactoring to patterns, tend to use other approaches for making software flexible and reusable. Personally, I'm glad Java does not have a preprocessor. It just seems a much cleaner language that way, that is, I have never yet seen Java code with ifdefs. But I can understand that it can be very useful under certain circumstances. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
