Summary: add preprocess only -E option to the preprocessor

Description Juergen Weber 2013-08-09 04:12:44 UTC 
The JacORB IDL compiler should have gcc's -E option: preprocess only
This would be useful for debugging nested IDLs, #ifdefs and the like.

Workaround: use gcc -E
Comment 1 Nick Cross 2013-12-16 17:27:43 UTC 
This might require some degree of restructuring of the lexer within the compiler. Given this is only of limited benefit to the overall ORB and there a couple of workarounds (use GCC or use TAO tao_idl preprocess only) I am closing this. However, if you have a patch then please feel free to reopen.
