Why not just empty #define?
Indeed. I'll change it.
Tks Sergei.
Since COUNT is not used to return the empty #define is ok. Another way
is to use #define COUNT(x) (0) to get a 0 when necessary to read
returns.
Just 0, no parens please.
Ok, no parens, since there's no evaluation.
It's because the literals don't need parens at all.
Then my change is:
-# define COUNT(x) do { (x)++; } while (0)
+# define COUNT(x) (++(x))
#else
-# define COUNT(x) do {} while (0)
+# define COUNT(x) 0
Pre-increment allowing to return the updated x.
Why if there was a post-increment before?
Anyway, this talk is quite pointless since the macro didn't return any
value anyway.
MBR, Sergei
