This seems ok. expanding_macro has to be global not static to be

The expand_macro call back use the parent argument which get
from expanding_macro list. The caller should be able to create tree
from the leaf node using the parent pointer.

Feel free to change to use the expanding_macro instead if that make
building the tree easier.

I think the fact that argument expansion is recursive and
body expansion is non-recursive is one of the things that
make the preprocessor kindof hard to grasp.

The body expansion can't be recursive on same macro otherwise
it can result in unlimited expansion. The C stander specify
the macro expand this way.


I cannot say this before I've tried it.

I'd like to straighten things out a bit: My last emails
where a bit too harsh and I'd like to apologize. Sorry
for that.

No problem at all. I figure you just want to the patch to
get included.

The next step then is: I'll write a patch to add a
test-prog that uses this api to trace the token generation
and generate a tree for it.
For a start I'll printout for all tokens of a preprocessor
run all macros-expansions that generated them.

That is great. I have a test-macro program in that
branch which is very close to print out all the tokens.

Appended is a test-patch that adds test-mdep testcase.
The file mdep.c is used to record that macro
expansion, each token will have a reference to its
source.
test-mdep.c does pre-process (as test-macro.c) then
prints out the token trace through macros for each
token: @{ } is used to mark the active path.

An example file is added: a.h
$test-mdep a.h
...
0004: 8
body in D1 :4 @{8} 10 9 5 <untaint: D1>
arg0 in D1 :@{8} 10 9
body in D0 :1 @{D1}(8 10 9) 2 D2(11) 3 <untaint: D0>
a.h:6:6
...
Token nr 4 of the preprocess stream is "8". The
generation path of "8" is marked @{8}...
Not 100%, still, I think already readable. (Actually
the printout order should be reversed (starting from file scope
and drilling down the macro expansions...)

I still dont handle empty expansions. I'll see weather I can come up
with something here...

I have thought about how to implement empty expansion tracing without
introducing a new token type. I came up with a solution, however I need
one callback, I called it substitute_arg(), see patch attached.
What do you think, is it apply-able?

I think I can use the address of the pointer to token (strict token
**,  which is normally &tok->next) as a hashing to propagate the empty
expansions...

Im not 100% shure it works but I need the extra hook to be able
to propagate the empty expansion from the arguments into the
substitution body...





Now, I've learned not to run too fast towards the
goal, (which is still "dependency tee from c parser entities downto
token"), maybe you can think about how to achieve the next steps
in an API :
- An #include #ifdef #else #endif pushdown-stack
to record the nestings for each token

Let me think about this. Just thinking out lound,
The #include and #ifdef can consider as a special kind
of predefine macro as well.

No, only a linked list that model the nexting levels.
Then a preprocessor hook that can register lookup_macro()
macro lookups inside # preprocessor lines. An example
makes it clear:

#if defined(a) && defined(b)
#if defined(c)
#endif
#if defined(e)
#endif
#endif

Result in:
[a b]+<-[c]
+<-[e]

This can be easily done with a push-pop brackets
and a callback in lookup_macro().


Also:
#if defined(a)
#elif defined(c)
#endif

[a]+<-[c]

#if defined(a)
#else
#endif

<-[empty]<-[a]

...


Another point I also need is to have an option so that inside
do_handle_define() the symbol structures are never reused but
alloc_symbol() is always used for undef and define, this is
because I need to be able to also track the undef and define
history for a macro at a certain position. I think this should be
easy to add because you just need to define define-undef on
top of each other...



- How to connect all this to the AST.

For symbol, it relative easy because symbol has pos range
and aux pointer.

I thought about taking "struct symbol_list *syms = sparse(file)"
as the root. Then mark all elements that are used by them as dependent.
I dont have enough insight to say how I can determine things like
which "static inline" are used or how to traverse the
"typedef" dependency.
The goal is to have a "shrink" application that can strip away
all c-lines (pre-pre-process level) that are not used by a specific
command invocation of the compiler. Also a tool that can quickly show
for a specific identifier everything that is connected to it, again on
pre-preprocessor source level. kind-of something like:
...
func1() {
struct string_list *filelist = NULL; int i;
}
..
I point to "string_list" and then all lines that are related
to struct string_list, (#ifdef nestings, macros, all member typedefs)
etc are shown and all the rest stripped away, again on human
readable c source level.



Do you need to attach the dependency for the statment and
expression as well?
