But isn't this also scanned by hsc2hs? After all, #def
(not #define) is not a cpp macro, but an instruction for
hsc2hs to insert code in a header file. In hsc2hs, a
construct like:
#test
is actually handled by a function definition with name
hsc_test, which outputs an expansion. I can't find, however,
something like hsc_def that I could call from my function.
If I could get my code to be first processed by cpp and
only then by hsc2hs, I think the problem would be solved.
Is it possible to do that?
