问题
Repro steps:
insert the following line into any line of your c++ source code.
#1234
Any line including the first line, the last line. Even you can input between function header and body like this.
int foo()
#1234
{
return 0;
}
The number can be very long, I tested more than 170 characters. If you add any non-numeric character, you will get an compile error.
My question is: why # followed by a number doesn't break the compile, while # followed by a non-numeric character does.
Thanks for your time, everyone.
回答1:
That is a line directive. Most preprocessors output these to tell the compiler which lines it actually is in the original source file.
As the preprocessor can add many (sometimes hundreds or even thousands) lines to the source it provides to the compiler, the compiler needs to way to keep track of the line numbers of the original source file. This is done through special directives such as that.
回答2:
When I compile it with GCC, I get the following warning:
warning: style of line directive is a GCC extension [enabled by default]
In other words, this is not Standard C++, but a specific compiler extension (a preprocessor extension in this case and, in particular, a line directive).
You should therefore refer to the compiler's documentation to check what exactly is allowed and what is not. For instance, see this.
