Pre Process Macros & Functions Name Issue

[CycloneRing]

Hi, Just found your amazing repo thanks for this, Code looks very clean, I want to give it a try for my game engine scripting! However I faced a bug and one question.

Question : Is pre-processing macros supported? I did some tests and it didn't work but I saw in your code you implemented it? for example

#define my_function __registred_func_1

Bug : When i use tab space " " before my function, compiler count the tab space as the name of function...

This works :

void print(const char* str)
{
RegistredPrint(str);
}

But this throws error :

void print(const char* str)
{
    RegistredPrint(str); // ERROR :  undefined function ('   RegistredPrint') or invalid arguments in call
}

I know it can be fixed by replacing all tab spaces with null before compiling but if it be fixed in the repo it would be great.

Thanks

Hi Cyclone!

Wow, good catch, thank you for the bug report! I have just committed a fix, the tokenizer should now skip the tabs.

Regarding the macro support: at the moment you can define macros, but only on the C++ side, by using the defineMacro method from the environment. Then you can use the macro in your script code. Adding support for the #define directive in scripts is on my TODO list, though. I'll see if I can add it during the weekend, shouldn't take long.

@CycloneRing: #define directives in script code are now supported!
