<h3 class="section">10.3 Traditional miscellany</h3>

<p>Here are some things to be aware of when using the traditional
preprocessor.
</p>
<ul>
<li> Preprocessing directives are recognized only when their leading
&lsquo;<samp>#</samp>&rsquo; appears in the first column.  There can be no whitespace
between the beginning of the line and the &lsquo;<samp>#</samp>&rsquo;, but whitespace can
follow the &lsquo;<samp>#</samp>&rsquo;.

</li><li> A true traditional C preprocessor does not recognize &lsquo;<samp>#error</samp>&rsquo; or
&lsquo;<samp>#pragma</samp>&rsquo;, and may not recognize &lsquo;<samp>#elif</samp>&rsquo;.  CPP supports all
the directives in traditional mode that it supports in ISO mode,
including extensions, with the exception that the effects of
&lsquo;<samp>#pragma GCC poison</samp>&rsquo; are undefined.

</li><li> __STDC__ is not defined.

</li><li> If you use digraphs the behavior is undefined.

</li><li> If a line that looks like a directive appears within macro arguments,
the behavior is undefined.

</li></ul>
