- I have looked over this problem, but can not figure out the why of
- it. I don't have a copy of the Standard, but I have read the FAQ
- (11.17), but it does not give the why of it either....
- Why is this necessary:
-
- #define A Hello
- #define s(x) #x
- #define ss(x) s(x) /* why this circumvention for #defined ?? */
-
- I can not be sure if 11.18 of the FAQ is also involved in the
- answer.
- TIA.
