Hi,
I am wondering about the possibility to use the "#include" syntax.
I have source from a previous project based on click 1.5 and I want to display the .click file in clicky. How can I use the gcc preprocessor?
Regards,
Falk

This is almost a FAQ on this mailinglist, but still it is an open
question...
One thing you can already do is use compound elements to prevent
redundancy, this works very well and gives you good results.
Another thing you can do is include other files with a C-style
#include and use the gcc preprocessor, this also works quite well.
Support for including other files in the language itself is currently
not available. Probably the most logical path to do this is
implementing an include phase before all parsing of the configure
file. I guess no one here would object to a patch to do this :-)
