Ok, but what if compiler does not support "#pragma GCC visibility", what you plan to do? The reason of question: if samples above are full, i.e. you indeed don't have #else part, then you just don't need the #if at all. If compiler supports "#pragma GCC visibility" then it will execute it with #if (because HAVE_PRAGMA_VISIBILITY will be defined) or without. If compiler doesn't support it, then pragma GCC visibility will be skipped with #if (because undefined HAVE_PRAGMA_VISIBILITY) or without (just because unknown pragmas are ignored per standard). -- Andrew W.
