It is impossible, and I don't think it will be possible in the future. C macros bring too many problems with them. If you want to run cpp
over your Rust sources, you can do it manually.
If you don't want to do it and if there is a lot of constants and you also don't want to copy their values from C code to Rust you can make a C wrapper which will provide global variables with these values:
#define INIT_FLAG 0x00000001
...
const int init_flag = INIT_FLAG;
You compile this file, create a static library from it and link to it as usual:
$ gcc -c init_flag.c
$ ar r libinitflag.a init_flag.o
Rust source:
use std::libc;
#[link(name="initflag", kind="static")]
extern {
pub static init_flag: libc::c_int;
}
Rust source is nearly identical to what you tried to achieve. You will need C glue object file, however.
