Symbolic Values :

Description :

Assigns the given error code to the given text string. When language compiling, the macro actually amounts to nothing more than a comment. When resource compiling a module (RC), the macro is used to map error code numbers to a corresponding text string.

Prior to Release 4.5, an alternative form was defined due to a compiler bug in MPW C. The compiler generated an error when a macro evaluated to nothing and is followed by another #define.



/* "stringtext" designates translatable text fragments that need to be
translated, but are not shown to the user as a "message" (error,
warning or otherwise). There should be no online help for these. */

#define stringtext(code,text)
