How to generate random variable names in C++ using macros?

Question

I\'m creating a macro in C++ that declares a variable and assigns some value to it. Depending on how the macro is used, the second occurrence of the macro can override the v

While I don't think its even possible, you should seriously consider making a class out of this.

If you want a random element in a random array to hold a certain value, you can do this:

std::vector< std::vector > m_vec;

Then wrap it in a class, so the developer can only set a number:

void set(int foo)
{
    m_vec[random()][random()] = foo;
}

Is there any reason why you want it a macro? Random variable name sounds dangerous, what if it picks something already defined somewhere else in the code?
