Preprocessor Directives

Preprocessor directives are special language constructs, which control the script interpreter behavior. All UnigineScript directives begin with the # sign, and each of them should be on its own line. Note that there are no semicolons at the end of strings that start with directives.

Preprocessor Macros

A macro is a fragment of code which has been given a name. Whenever the name is used, it is replaced by the contents of the macro.

There is a pre-defined set of macros:

  • __VERSION__ - the UnigineScript interpreter version, for example, "1.82".
  • NDEBUG - the binary does not contain debugging information (release build).
  • _WIN32 - target operating system is Windows.
  • _LINUX - target operating system is Linux.
  • _MACOS - target operating system is Mac OS X.
  • _ARCH_X86 - target operating system version is 32-bit.
  • _ARCH_X64 - target operating system version is 64-bit.
  • HAS_BLOB - Blob class is available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_BOUNDS - Bounds-related classes are available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_DIRECT3D11 - the binary is built with Direct3D 11 rendering system.
  • HAS_JOYSTICK - the binary is built with support of a joystick.
  • HAS_IMAGE - Image class is available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_MESH - Mesh class is available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_MEMORY - the binary is built with Unigine memory management system.
  • HAS_OPENAL - the binary is built with OpenAL sound system.
  • HAS_OPENGL - the binary is built with OpenGL rendering system.
  • HAS_OPENEXR - the binary is built with support for the OpenEXR format.
  • HAS_PATH - Path class is available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_REGEXP - Regexp Class is available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_SIXAXIS - the binary is built with support for a sixaxis controller.
  • HAS_SOCKET - Socket Class is available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_XAUDIO2 - the binary is built with XAudio2 sound system.
  • HAS_XML - Xml Class is available in the Core Library.
  • HAS_XPAD360 - the binary is built with support for Xbox 360 gamepad.
  • HAS_ELLIPSOID - the binary is built including the ellipsoid functionality.
  • USE_DOUBLE - the binary is built with support for double precision of coordinates.
  • USE_GEODETICS - the binary is built with support for geodetics.
  • USE_MICROPROFILE - the binary is built with support of microprofile.

These macros can be used as conditions and combined with logical operators: () for grouping, || for "or", && for "and".

#include

Loads the content of a given file.

Syntax: #include "someFile"

Here someFile is a target file name.

Source code (UnigineScript)
#include "foo.h"
foo(); // ok if foo.h contains declaration of foo()

To avoid conflicts it's recommended to include files this way:

Source code (UnigineScript)
#ifndef __MYLIB_H__
#define __MYLIB_H__

#include "myLib.h"

#endif /* __MYLIB_H__ */
In this case, even being included several times from different places, "myLib.h" will not cause re-definition collisions, since it will be compiled only once.

Notice
If a base path to the file is not mentioned in the #include pragma, the file will be searched among all files located in the data directory of the project.

#define

Sets an identifier and a character sequence, by which the identifier will be replaced in the text of the program.

Syntax: #define macro_name character_sequence

Here macro_name will be replaced with character_sequence everywhere in the code. Note that character_sequence shouldn't contain spaces (except for strings, which must be enclosed in double quotes) and can be omitted.

Source code (UnigineScript)
#define LEFT 1
#define RIGHT 0

log.message("%d %d\n",LEFT,RIGHT);
// Output: 1 0

#define FRUIT "an apple"

log.message("%s\n", "today we will eat "FRUIT);
// Output: today we will eat an apple

// arguments are also supported:
#define saturate(v) clamp(v,0.0,1.0)

Inside the #define directive, the literal # operator can be used. It turns a macro argument into a string constant. This operator can also be used inside templates.

Syntax: #macro_arg

Here macro_arg is an argument to a macro.

Source code (UnigineScript)
#define assert(EXP) { if(EXP) { } else { throw("Assertion: '%s'",#EXP); } }

See also Templates.

#undef

Removes a previously defined identifier.

Syntax: #undef macro_name

Source code (UnigineScript)
#define LOCK
#undef LOCK

#ifndef LOCK
log.message("unlocked\n"); // this fragment will be executed
#endif

#ifdef

Allows executing some fragment of code conditionally, if a given identifier is defined with #define.

Syntax: #ifdef macro_name
some_code #endif

If macro_name is defined, then some_code will be executed.

Source code (UnigineScript)
#define LOCK1
#define LOCK2

#ifdef (LOCK1 && LOCK2) || LOCK3
log.message("locked\n"); // this fragment will be executed
#endif

#ifndef

Allows executing some fragment of code conditionally, if a given identifier is not defined with #define or is undefined with #undef.

Syntax: #ifndef macro_name
some_code #endif

If macro_name is not defined, then some_code will be executed.

Source code (UnigineScript)
#define LOCK

#ifndef LOCK
log.message("unlocked\n"); // this fragment will NOT be executed
#endif

#else

Creates an alternative to #ifdef and #ifndef pragmas.

Syntax: #ifdef macro_name some_code
#else some_more_code
#endif

Here #ifndef can be used instead of #ifdef (however, the meaning of the condition will be reversed). If the first condition is false, then everything from the first #else up to the first #endif will be executed.

Source code (UnigineScript)
#define SOUND_ENABLE

#ifdef SOUND_ENABLE
log.message("sound enabled\n");
#else
log.message("sound disabled\n"); // this fragment will be executed
#endif

#elif

Create a conditional alternative to #ifdef and #ifndef pragmas.

Syntax: #ifdef macro_name1 some_code1
#elif macro_name2 some_code2
#endif

Here #ifndef can be used instead of #ifdef (however, the meaning of the condition will be reversed). If macro_name1 is false, then macro_name2 is tested, and if it's true, everything from this #elif up to the first #elif, #else or #endif will be executed.

Source code (UnigineScript)
#define VAL2

#ifdef VAL1
log.message("it is 1\n");
#elif VAL2
log.message("it is 2\n"); // this fragment will be executed
#elif VAL3
log.message("it is 3\n");
#endif

#endif

Marks an end of conditional compilation.

#error

Terminates execution of the script and logs the message into the console and a system log file.

Syntax: #error message_text

Source code (UnigineScript)
#error I don't want to execute it any longer

#warning

Logs the message into the console and a system log file, the script continues execution.

Syntax: #warning message_text

Source code (UnigineScript)
#warning There is somethings wrong in here

#warn_long

Terminates compilation if a variable of a long type is used in the script, and logs the error message into the console and a system log file.

#warn_double

Terminates compilation if a variable of a double type is used in the script, and logs the error message into the console and a system log file.

#no_long

Replaces all variables of a long type in the script with an int type.

#no_double

Replaces all variables of a double type in the script with a float type.
