This does not work if you have other #ifdef blocks inside
the DEBUG block. It will resume printing at the first #ifdef
it encounters. Try it with this to see what I mean:
#include <stdio.h>
#ifdef DEBUG
some code here
#ifdef SOLARIS
solaris-specific code here
#endif /* SOLARIS */
this is still debug code
#endif DEBUG
this is normal code
A possible solution would be to keep track of how many
#ifs and #endifs you have seen. Something like this:
my $state = 0;
my $debug = 0;;
while(<>) {
$debug=1,$state++,next if /^\s*#if.*DEBUG/;
$state++ if /^\s*#if/;
$state-- if /^\s*#endif/;
$debug=0,next if $debug && $state==0;
print if $debug==0;
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
