#include
In RVUs preceding D30.00, if the #include specification was of the form
#include "subvolume.file", the Guardian compiler checked for the
subvolume in the current volume by default. Beginning with D30.00, you must
specify the default volume using an SSV pragma.
If you need more than one physical line to complete the section list, place a
backslash (\) at the end of all but the last line of the list. The backslashes cause
these physical lines to be concatenated into a single logical line. For example, this
is translated as a single logical line:
#include <cextdecs( \
PROCESS_GETINFOLIST_, \
FILE_OPEN_, \
WRITE, \
WRITEREAD \
)>
The OSS environment and some operating systems use file names that consist of
a name and an extension separated by a period. On such systems, the names of
include header files are specified as name.h. The C compiler allows this format in
the #include directive.
For compilations in the Guardian environment, the C compiler translates name.h
to nameh. For example, stdio.h becomes stdioh. If the name portion exceeds
7 characters, the C compiler truncates it to 7 characters.
For TNS compilations, included files can be nested to a depth of 16. For example,
file f1 includes file f2, file f2 includes file f3, and so on until file f15 includes
file f16.
For TNS compilations, the maximum number of #include directives that can
appear in a single compilation unit is 2048. If the same include file occurs twice in
a compilation unit, that file is counted twice because it appears in two different
#include directives.
Examples
1. This example includes the stdioh header file, specified for the Guardian
environment:
#include <stdioh>
#include "source_file" The specified user-defined file is
searched for in the current default
Guardian volume and subvolume or OSS
working directory.
#include "subvolume.file" The specified user-defined file is
searched for in the current default
Guardian volume.
