Thread: macro's

I'm trying to put a basic menu in a macro so that it can be called quickly and easily. I'm not sure how to put a multiple line statement in a macro. For example:

#define MENU (printf("Something here \n");
printf("Something else here \n"); )

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers.

I'm not entirely sure, but give this a try. It might just work.

Code:

#define MENU (printf("Something here \n"); \
              printf("Something else here \n"); )

All I'm doing here is pasting the two lines together with a "\" at the end of each line that is to be continued on the next.

Let me know if this works, now I'm curious.

Arker.

Yeah. Thanks Arker. When I saw your post I remembered I had done that awhile ago.

Cheers.

Just wondering, why do you need 2 printf()'s? You can do it this way as well:

Code:

#define MENU printf("Something here \n" \
              "Something else here \n");
