IFDEF(1)                                                   IFDEF(1)


NAME
       ifdef - #ifdef/#else/#endif symbolic resolver


DESCRIPTION
        "ifdef" selectively resolves #ifdef,#ifndef,#if,#elif,
       #else and #endif in C/C++ source code. Macros that are 
       explicitly defined/undefined by -D/-U option are resolved
       and eliminated from the source code. Other #ifdefs remain
       unchanged. #if statements with multiple conditions and
       &&,|| operators will be resolved by a symbolic resolver.
       "ifdef" can be also used as a #ifdef nesting hierarchy
       analyzer.

SYNOPSIS
       ifdef <-dgmqrsuvV> <-f[deffile]> <-o[outfile]> 
             <-D[defined]<=[value]>> <-U[undefined]> <-o[outfile]> [source.c]

Option:
       [options] 
            -D [macro]<=[value]>:resolve '#ifdef [macro]' as true
            -U [macro]          :resolve '#ifdef [macro]' as false
            -f [deffile]        :define/undef macros by file
                                    #define [macro]<=[value]>
                                    #undef  [macro]
            -o [outfile]        :specify output file (default - stdout)
            -m                  :no output
          debug  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
            -q                  :quiet mode

            -r                  :display resolved conditions
            -u                  :display unresolved conditions

EXAMPLE
            $ ifdef -D ONLINE -D MAX=1024 -U DEBUG -o newsource.c source.c
            $ ifdef -g source.c
            $ ifdef -G -d -DDEBUG1 source.c


EXAMPLE1 - #ifdef/#endif analyzer

        "ifdef" can be used as a #ifdef analyzer by using -g 
       option. Location and nesting hierarchy of all the #if,
       #ifdef,#ifndef,#elif,#endif statements will be displayed.
       For example, let's analyze #ifdef structure in 
       $CINTSYSDIR/G__ci.h. 

            $ cd $CINTSYSDIR
            $ ifdef -g G__ci.h

   21: #ifndef G__CI_H  unresolved
   54: | #ifndef G__CONSTNESSFLAG  unresolved
   58: | #endif  unresolved
   89: | #ifdef G__OLDIMPLEMENTATION1073  unresolved
   91: | #endif  unresolved
  114: | #ifndef G__OLDIMPLEMENTATION1231  unresolved
  120: | | #ifdef G__CPPIF_EXTERNC  unresolved
  121: | | | #ifndef G__CPPIF_PROJNAME  unresolved
  123: | | | #endif  unresolved
  124: | | | #ifdef G__CPPIF_STATIC  unresolved
  126: | | | #endif  unresolved
  127: | | #endif  unresolved
  129: | | #ifndef G__CPPIF_PROJNAME  unresolved
  130: | | | #ifndef G__CPPIF_STATIC  unresolved
  132: | | | #endif  unresolved
  133: | | #endif  unresolved
  135: | #endif  unresolved
  142: | #if (!defined(__MAKECINT__)) || defined(G__API) 0,4 unresolved
  145: | | #ifdef __cplusplus  unresolved
  146: | | | #ifndef G__ANSIHEADER  unresolved
             .
             .


EXAMPLE2 - #ifdef/#endif partial symbolic resolution

        The most powerful feature of "ifdef" is that it resolves
       selected macro in order to simplify C/C++ source code. For
       example, we have following source.

            /* source.c /////////////////////////////// */
            #ifdef A
            int f() { return A; }
            #else
            unsigned int f() { return 0; }
            #endif

            #ifdef B
            int g() { return B; }
            #else
            unsigned int g() { return 0; }
            #endif

            #if defined(A) && defined(B)
            int x;
            #endif

            #if !defined(A) || defined(B)
            int y;
            #endif
            /* end source.c /////////////////////////// */


       Suppose macro A is always defined, so we want to eliminate
       '#ifdef A' from the source. Use '-DA' option to specify that
       we want to eliminate '#ifdef A'.  Note that complex conditions,
       such as '!defined(A) || defined(B)' , are partially resolved.
       Also note that if A is referred as a value, it remains unchanged
       for readability.
      

            $ ifdef -DA source.c > tmp
            $ cat tmp

            /* source.c /////////////////////////////// */
            int f() { return A; }

            #ifdef B
            int g() { return B; }
            #else
            unsigned int g() { return 0; }
            #endif

            #if  defined(B)
            int x;
            #endif

            #if  defined(B)
            int y;
            #endif
            /* end source.c /////////////////////////// */


       Now, suppose macro A is always undefined, so we want to eliminate
       '#ifdef A' in the other way. Use '-UA' option in this case. 

            $ ifdef -UA source.c > tmp
            $ cat tmp

            /* source.c /////////////////////////////// */
            unsigned int f() { return 0; }
            
            #ifdef B
            int g() { return B; }
            #else
            unsigned int g() { return 0; }
            #endif
            
            
            int y;
            /* end source.c /////////////////////////// */


        You can define multiple -D, -U options. If you have many such
        definitions, you can specify them in a file. Prepare a file
        like below.

            // macros.def  - define/undef definition file
            #define A
            #undef B
            #define C
            #define D

        Then, give this file by -f option.

            $ ifdef -f macros.def source.c > tmp


EXAMPLE3 - #ifdef/#endif partial symbolic resolution preview

         You may want to make sure #ifdefs are resolved correctly.
        -G option will give you detailed information about which 
        macros and resolved.  If you add -d option, eliminated lines 
        are also displayed.

            $ ifdef -G -d -UA source.c 

            #undef  A
                2: #ifdef A  ALWAYS FALSE
            D   3: int f() { return A; }
                4: #else   ALWAYS TRUE
                6: #endif END ALWAYS
               14: #if defined(A) && defined(B) -> 0 ALWAYS FALSE
            D  15: int x;
               16: #endif END ALWAYS
               18: #if !defined(A) || defined(B) -> 1 ALWAYS TRUE
               20: #endif END ALWAYS

         Although included in CINT package, ifdef is an independent
        software productivity tool.
