privateDefines property

note

Work in progress.

Purpose​

Specify compiler preprocessor macros passed on the compiler command line when compiling the source files of the current component.

Syntax​

{
 "cdlOptions | cdlComponents": [
    {
      "name": "...",
      ...
      "privateDefines": [ 
        "<name>[=<value>]",
        ... 
      ],
      ...
    }
  ]
}

The value of the privateDefines property is an array of names, possibly with values.

Default value​

If missing, the current object will not contribute any preprocessor macros to the build.

Description​

Generally, preprocessor macros are defined at the top level and apply to all sources that enter the build.

In some cases, it might be necessary to define preprocessor macros for each component.
