guys,
I have to do some testing, and usally code flows like this. If
something is wrong, flag error. And if it is correct, see if something
else is wrong, flag error! And recursive like that.
if (a != b) {
flag_error();
}
else {
if ( c != d) {
flag_error();
}
else {
if ( e != f) {
flag_error();
}
} //end of else c != d
} //end of else a !=b
it is really annoying to read code later for debugging. Using a !=b ?
flag_error() : c != d ? ...doesn't seem that practical either.
how can I convert this into macro so that I can use it more readable
something like this!
VERIFY a == b OTHERWISE flag_error();
GO_NEXT;
VERIFY c == d OTHERWISE flag_error();
GO_NEXT;
VERIFY e == f OTHERWISE flag_error();
is this recursive macro possible.
Sorry, for asking dumb quesitons. Trying to make life easy, if possible.

What's wrong with (it seems at least as readable as your proposed solution):
if (a != b) {
flag_error();
}
else if ( c != d) {
flag_error();
}
else if ( e != f) {
flag_error();
}
else
{
//If we get here, nothing is wrong
}
Or, using exceptions:
if (a != b) {
throw some_error;
}
if ( c != d) {
throw some_error;
}
if ( e != f) {
throw some_error;
}
//If we get here, nothing is wrong

It's actually not recursive; rather, it's alternative.
My version:
if ((a != b)
|| (c != d)
|| (e != f)) flag_error();

That's good if there is one error to all cases.

That seemed to be the example given.
If not, then my next suggestion is:
if (a != b) return flag_error();
if (c != d) return flag_error();
if (e != f) return flag_error();
