Compiler directive. and , provide compile-time inclusion or exclusion of code.
Syntax 
<MvIFDEF NAME = "string: {  expression } | literal">
  • Empty Tag

Within an <MvIFDEF> block that does not generate code, the compiler still does syntax and logical parsing of the source, such that tags that require end tags (e.g., <MvCALL> and </MvCALL>) are still checked and matched.

Attributes

  • NAME: Required. The name of a symbolic code passed on the compiler command line.

Example

In this example, debugging script will be included in the compiled program if the symbolic code DEBUG is passed on the compiler command line.

Example:

<MvIFDEF NAME = "DEBUG">
    ... Script included in the output if DEBUG is set ....
</MvIFDEF>

The compiler command line instructs the compiler to include the script in the  <MvIFDEF> block. Optionally other symbols can be set.

Example:

mvc -D DEBUG [-D ANOTHER_SYMBOL] source.mv
