AnswerThe preprocessor will include whatever
file you specify in your #include statement.
Therefore, if you have the line
#include
in your program, the file macros.inc will be
included in your precompiled program. It is,
however, unusual programming practice to put any
file that does not have a .h or .hpp extension
in an #include statement.
You should always put a .h extension on any of
your C files you are going to include. This
method makes it easier for you and others to
identify which files are being used for
preprocessing purposes. For instance, someone
modifying or debugging your program might not
know to look at the macros.inc file for macro
definitions. That person might try in vain by
searching all files with .h extensions and come
up empty. If your file had been named macros.h,
the search would have included the macros.h
file, and the searcher would have been able to
see what macros you defined in it.
