Bug #2552

[Benoit Cerrina]

Hi,
thanks for the traduction, here are my comments,

this has been reported many times, I haven't been able to reproduce it on
purpose, but of course every time I have a real set of files to add it happens,
this is very annoying but I don't have any idea about what to do about it.

there is a Bugs file in the distribution at the end of it there is a list of
unimplemented feature not considered to be bugs, the first one is
"- The classparser does no macro expansion"
this explains it.
My thought on this is that this will never be implemented since it would never
be fast enough, looking at comercial IDEs, I haven't seen one which can do it.
In any case I'd say the workaround is to either
	1) be more carefull with the way you use macros, the function
declaration example and the definition could use the same macro and the } could
be out of the conditional (I'm sure the problem is not with this macro but with
an earlier one which did the same type of things)
	2) do not use the classviewer or be prepared to handle strange results

I'm sorry but this is the price to pay when developping for a language with
macro expansion.

this is a real bug I'll take a look at it

same here

what would be nice is a way to configure the Auto Indention behavior.
