#pragma
 
Preprocessor directive

Syntax

#pragma option [ = value ]
Or
#pragma push ( option [, value ] )
Or
#pragma pop ( option )

Parameters

Possible values for option and related values:



If value is not given, the compiler assumes True (-1). A zero (0) value may be used in place of False. A non-zero (for example, -1) value may be used in place of True.

Description

Allows the setting of compiler options inside the source code.

Push saves the current value of the option onto a stack, then assigns the new value (or True) to it. Pop restores the option to its previous value, and removes it from the stack. This mechanism allows options to be changed for a certain part of source code, regardless of the setting used by the context, which is especially useful inside #include header files.

constness pragma is added for testing fbc compiler. It will be removed in future at should not be relied upon.

Example

'' MSVC-compatible bitfields: save the current setting and then enable them
#pragma push(msbitfields)

'' do something that requires MS-compatible bitfields here

'' restore original setting
#pragma pop(msbitfields)
