Consider the following macroinstruction and structure defininations of the same names:


Well, at some later point in the code, you purge foo like this:


My question is now: Which one gets purged? the macro or structure? Is this related to the order they were defined or are structures and macros always treated appart? Or has any a higher purging-priority?

I think I read something like it depends on the order they were defined in the fasm docs. Or maybe I'm just confused.

Has anyone seen my brain today?

The "purge" is solely for macros. For structures there is the "restruc" analoguous to "purge" (see the manual, many important additions were added recently mainly to the chapter about preprocessor; also the [new] second paragraph of section 1.2.1 is important when we talk about preprocessor's features).
