Clarification of 20.1 - Intrepretation of \"not to be d - Gavin McCall - 09-09-2005
Question 2: Interpretation of \"not be defined, redefined\"
a) Does it mean that \"#define\" is not allowed?
b) Is it not allowed to define as an object or a function, either?
Answer: MISRA C Steering Team clarification 7/9/2005
(a) YES - To define an object or a function with the name of a reserved identifier is prohibited under rule 20.2.
(b) YES - To #define macros with the name of a reserved identifier is prohibited.
