2.3. #Defines as constants
C and C USE #defines in Several Ways. In a c header file #define can be used
For Declaring a constant for declaring a symbol for conditional compiration for macros
This Chapter Describes The Translation of #define Into delphi constants.
The Format for Declaring Constants IN C is:
#define nameofconstant value
For example:
#define time_zone_id_unknown 0
#define Time_ZONE_ID_STANDARD 1
#define time_zone_id_daylight 2
The Translation in Delphi IS:
Const
Time_ZONE_ID_UNKNOWN = 0;
Time_ZONE_ID_STANDARD = 1;
Time_ZONE_ID_DAYLIGHT = 2;
