_Pragma

[PVozenilek]

Pelles C supports _Pragma from C99. Unfortunately it is buggy.

#include <stdio.h>
static int i = 0;
static void __cdecl foo(void) {
  ++i;
}
#pragma startup foo // this works, i gets incremented


// this fails to compile
#define BAR() \
  static void __cdecl bar(void) { ++i; } \
  _Pragma("startup bar") \
  /**/

   
BAR()

int main(void)
{
  printf("i = %d\n", i);
  return 0;
}


Compiler error is:

Done.



I had tried all the tricks: adding/removing parenthesis, semicolon, putting the _pragma before/after. Nothing helped.
