I'm toying with the idea of implementing a feature in FPC.

Out of sheer laziness I just tried to compile the FPC sources which I had downloaded together with Lazarus rpm's, and, to my wonder, I got a functioning compiler, so I began playing with it.

I found a compilation switch "PREPROCWRITE" which apparently causes to write the preprocessor output, and which would be very useful to debug my feature. But if I try to enable it, then I get a number of undefined, namely the procedure "Get_directive" and the identifiers "is_conditional", "_DIR_DEFINE" and "_DIR_UNDEF". Searching in the source tree they appear not to be anywhere.

Are they only to be found in svn repository, or it's just stale stuff, not used anymore?

Many thanks,

Giuliano

I think it's indeed stale code that hasn't been maintained since a long time.
