Rule 8.8 Does this apply to after pre-processing

[misra-c]

The MISRA guidelines define "code" in the Glossary as

Code consists of everything within a translation unit that is not excluded by conditional compilation.

Therefore, the guidelines apply to code after preprocessing directives have been executed, unless otherwise stated in a guideline.

In this example, “x” is excluded by the conditional compilation in “fn2” and therefore only appears in “fn1”. Hence the code is not compliant with rule 8.9.
