David Baelde commented on LS-634:
---------------------------------
Yes, I think a #define would be cleaner. Right now, the semantics of your patch
is unclear -- in particular, it looks like it doesn't respect scoping at all.
(Regarding your comment on stereo, I agree with you. I said this because it may
be what Airtime does currently -- it seems like the simplest solution to avoid
typing issues. Anyway, my suggestion to produce a more structured config script
is independent of that aspect. It still seems like a valid idea to me, but
adding a #define feature seems useful in any case.)
We could possibly use the pp preprocessor to process our #include and #define,
but it's okay to do it ourselves and avoids a dependency which might be tricky
on windows.
One trick is to clarify what #define would mean. Would it be textual
substitution anywhere in the text, or substitution of particular variables?
Also, the interaction between #define and the current #ifdef will be a bit
funny since the latter is about toplevel variable definitions, nothing #defined
things.

> We should allow some simple variables in encoding formats, otherwise some
> users (airtime) are starting to get an exponential blowup in the size of
> their scripts... I think that an easy solution would be to replace the
> variables by their value at preprocessing time (we don't want to have a value
> environment when doing type inference, so it has to be resolved before that).
> For instance, Martin Konečný reported this on the ML:
> The reason I brought this up, is because currently our code is as follows:
> output_mono = (...)
> output_stereo = (...)
> if type == "mp3" then
> if bitrate == 24 then
> if stereo then
> ignore(output_stereo(%mp3(bitrate = 24, stereo = true),
> !source))
> else
> ignore(output_mono(%mp3(bitrate = 24, stereo = false),
> mean(!source)))
> end
> elsif bitrate == 32 then
> if stereo then
> ignore(output_stereo(%mp3(bitrate = 32, stereo = true),
> !source))
> else
> ignore(output_mono(%mp3(bitrate = 32, stereo = false),
> mean(!source)))
> end
> elsif bitrate == 48 then
> if stereo then
> ignore(output_stereo(%mp3(bitrate = 48, stereo = true),
> !source))
> else
> ignore(output_mono(%mp3(bitrate = 48, stereo = false),
> mean(!source)))
> end
> Multiply for all bitrates up to 320kbps, then once again for %vorbis, and
> then once again for shoutcast :)
> Right now it's not so bad, but in the future if we add one more user
> customizable variable, it would be wiser to use a code generator :)
