- The GNU C-Compatible Compiler Preprocessor.
/Main/RedHat/6.1/alpha/Development/Languages/
Cpp (or cccp) is the GNU C-Compatible Compiler Preprocessor. Cpp is a
macro processor which is used automatically by the C compiler to
transform your program before actual compilation. It is called a macro
processor because it allows you to define macros: abbreviations for
longer constructs.
The C preprocessor provides four separate functionalities: the
inclusion of header files (files of declarations that can be
substituted into your program); macro expansion (you can define
macros, and the C preprocessor will replace the macros with their
definitions throughout the program); conditional compilation (using
special preprocessing directives, you can include or exclude parts of
the program according to various conditions); and line control (if you
use a program to combine or rearrange source files into an
intermediate file which is then compiled, you can use line control to
inform the compiler about where each source line originated).
You should install this package if you are a C programmer and you use
macros.
