Use string::c_str() to get the "C string representation" ...

That's because one of the '##' is unnecessary.
Try '#define foo(n) set_ ## n (const char *s)'

I don't know of such, but would recommend "Accelerated C++" by
Andrew Koenig and Barbara E. Moo as a "quick refresh course on
modern C++". http://www.acceleratedcpp.com/
A lot of your errors appear to stem from very dated understanding
of C++.
