preprocessor in c

[DotKu]

first here is the code

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>> >

/*errors.c*/
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 1000
/* this is the main function */
int main(){
prntf("hello\n" );
//const float pi = 3.0;
rturn 0;
}

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>> >>

when i do preprocess with "cl /E error.c" with VS complier
i got message such as:

""""""""""""""" """"""""""" """"
....
...
....
#pragma pack(pop)
#line 704 "C:\\Progra m Files\\Microsof t Visual Studio 8\\VC\\INCLUDE\
\stdio.h"

#line 706 "C:\\Progra m Files\\Microsof t Visual Studio 8\\VC\\INCLUDE\
\stdio.h"

#line 2 "C:\\DotKu\\Vis ual Studio 2005\\Projects\ \Error\\Error\
\Error.cpp"
....
....
""""""""""""""" """"""""""""""" """"

any one know what does these "# 704" means?

It claims to have found an error in stdio.h.
Which is suspicious. I suspect that stdio.h illegally defines MAX on your
system.

your system.

There's not error report there that I can see. The text "Error" is
just in the OP's file name.

The pre-processor is simply producing line control directives.

You tell us here that the file extension is c.

Your compiler is telling us it is cpp. Odds are the compiler is the
more accurate of the two which means this is being processed as C++
code and not C code.
