Html is off. [quote][i]Originally posted by wstanley[/i] [br]Using VC++ 2005 and the latest version of VA, symbols are not recognized in test2 after testMac10. Found this while using a library that we have purchased that uses macros with a large number of parameters. Just copy the following to see... // number of params on the macro do not matter, // number of parameters when used it was matter for the problem #define testMac9(p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6,p7,p8,p9) 0 #define testMac10(p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6,p7,p8,p9,p10) 0 // this method works int test1() { const int iA = 2; cout << iA; // symbols after the next line are still recognized int iError = testMac9(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9); return iA + iError; } // this method looses it symbol context after after testMac10 int test2() { const int iA = 2; cout << iA; // symbols after the next line are NOT recognized int iError = testMac10(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10); return iA + iError; } //new context, it is alright again int test3() { const int iA = 2; cout << iA; int iError = testMac9(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9); return iA + iError; } //recognized methods do not seem to have the same problem (at the same limit anyway) int testMethod(int p1, int p2, int p3, int p4, int p5, int p6, int p7, int p8, int p9, int p10); int test4() { const int iA = 2; cout << iA; int iError = testMethod(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10); return iA + iError; } [/quote]   Check to include your profile signature.
