Summary

0008397: MACRO bug with constants

Description

The FUNCTION works but the MACRO doesn't.

MACRO(test_constants_macro _a )
     MESSAGE("a = ${_a}")
     IF(_a)
         MESSAGE("test_constants_macro: a is true")
     ELSE()
         MESSAGE("test_constants_macro: ERROR: a is FALSE!")
     ENDIF()
ENDMACRO()
FUNCTION(test_constants_func _a )
     MESSAGE("a = ${_a}")
     IF(_a)
         MESSAGE("test_constants_func: a is true")
     ELSE()
         MESSAGE("test_constants_func: ERROR: a is FALSE!")
     ENDIF()
ENDFUNCTION()

test_constants_macro(1)
test_constants_macro(TRUE)
test_constants_macro(ON)
test_constants_func(1)
test_constants_func(TRUE)
test_constants_func(ON)

a = 1
test_constants_macro: ERROR: a is FALSE!
a = TRUE
test_constants_macro: ERROR: a is FALSE!
a = ON
test_constants_macro: ERROR: a is FALSE!
a = 1
test_constants_func: a is true
a = TRUE
test_constants_func: a is true
a = ON
test_constants_func: a is true

Notes
(0014643) Brad King (manager) 2009-01-20 08:12	From the documentation of MACRO: When it is invoked, the commands recorded in the macro are first modified by replacing formal parameters (${arg1}) with the arguments passed, and then invoked as normal commands. Only the ${} syntax usage gets replaced. Macro arguments are not real variables.
