I thought that the "LinkDef" file was not parsed by the preprocessor (so if I define the macro there it should still be visible).

Anyhow, is there any magic function call that registers a macro? I mean something like :

        G__RegisterUserMacro("XXX", "xxx");

According to the :

        http://root.cern.ch/root/Cint.phtml?ref this syntax is reserved for global macro functions or class member macro functions. Actually, the correct syntax is :

        #pragma link MACRO function [[classname]::][fname]<(argtypes)>;

The syntax "#pragma link C++ macro XXX;" is not really described in the "reference manual", but is used in one of the examples there. Search for string "#pragma link C++ MACRO max;" in the above "reference".
