True. Additionally, some of those strange macros are just interpreted as language keywords by the parser.
I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to run CPP over the header files before processing them in HOC.
That is not exactly what we want, I think. Currently, HOC parses things file-by-file, so we do NOT want to follow #include directives. We might just process the line pragmas from CPP to keep track of where things came from, OTOH.
Is there a CPP written in Haskell and packaged as a library?
There is "cpphs". As a quick solution, I'd say we run the HOC InterfaceGenerator over the 10.4 SDK in /Developer/SDKs/ (which has all the "old" headers). I'm still working on cleaning up my InterfaceGenerator rewrite (I didn't have enough time to finihs last weekend, so maybe next weekend, but at least I'm motivated now). I think any more more elaborate improvements to the interface generator should be based on that instead of my old code. Cheers, Wolfgang
