APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • A C preprocessor issue occurs when a macro value is not
    replaced.  The issue occurs when __VA_ARGS__ is used, and the
    macro in question has the same name as the parameter being
    passed to the macro, i.e.:
    
       test1(test1);
    
    The same macro will work if the parameter is different than the
    macro name:
    
       test1(test2);
    

Local fix

  • Replace the __VA_ARGS__ usage with explicit macro parameters
    

Problem summary

  • PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    When expanding the recursive macro, internal attributes of the
    token are copied to the newly expanded macro by mistake,
    causing the new macro to be incorrectly treated as recursive as
    well, causing incorrect macro expansion.
    
    USERS AFFECTED:
    Users of macros with parameters using the same name.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The macro expansion issue has been corrected.
    

Temporary fix
