Summary
Adds a new builtin function-like macro
STRINGIFY()to the preprocessor.Behaviour
STRINGIFY(expr)expands to a string literal whose contents are the space-joined token text of the argument expression, before any further macro expansion (similar to C's#stringification operator).Example
Implementation
substitute_stringifymethod insrc/pre_processor.rs, modelled after the existingsubstitute_concat.processloop alongsidesubstitute_concat.
