| so what is happening here is the following:
|
| #define FALSE false
| #define false FALSE
|
| bool a = FALSE;
|
| So we get again:
| bool a = FALSE;
|
|
| This is the same problem as:
| int b;
|
| #define a b
| #define b a
|
| int main() {
| int test2 = a;
| }
|
| also true/false are not defined in C++ but rather they are keywords
`true' and `false' have special meanings, in C++, during
pre-processing phases. They can be used in the condition for
conditional inclusion, for example. Consequently, I don't think it is
valid to
#define false something
just like
#define 0 something
would be invalid.
