Hmm right.
This changes my earlier statement to:
- platform() has no advantages over ifdef, so it could be deprecated or dropped;
- there is an even stronger case for a deferred_ifdef statement, which would cause code selection at execution time, whether translated or shrouded, and not at initial parse time.
CChris
What is the semantic difference then betweeen deferred_ifdef and if?
