How is it that $A is interpreted both as 'itest' and as the value 1 in
the csd below?
it prints
SECTION 1:
new alloc for instr 1:
instr 1:  ithisitest = 1.000







#define this(A)#
    ithis$A    = $A
    print ithis$A
#
    instr 1
itest = 1
$this(itest)
    endin



i1 0 1
e

Hi,

if I were the parser, I think would see the code after macro replacement in 
the instr 1:

   instr 1
itest = 1
ithisitest = itest
print ithisisitest
    endin


so the result 
instr 1:  ithisitest = 1.000

makes perfectly sense to me.

But what you are after? Some extremely clever and economical code?

best!

Ah, yes, thanks, it makes sense to me too now.
I was trying to create a minimal example of a problem I discovered in
some old code of mine, where I had nested macros using the same macro
name ($A as the argument of both macros, one being called inside the
other). Still trying, as the above code did not create problems...

The macrop exmansion takes place in the preprocessor and is textual.  The 
assignment to itest takes place at runtime; hence the results you see 
which are in my opiion correct.

Thanks for that,
now, I managed to distill the actually problematic macro.
The following expands differently in csound 5.13 and in csound5.19
Csound6 behaves the same as 5.19.
So, a change has been made that breaks old orchestras.





#define first(A)#
    $A    = 0.1
    print $A
#
#define second(A)#
    $first(iamp)
    i$A    = $A
    print i$A
#
    instr 1
$second(1)
    endin


i1 0 1
e

... forgot to paste the console prints for the two different runs.
with csound5.13:
SECTION 1:
new alloc for instr 1:
instr 1:  iamp = 0.100
instr 1:  i1 = 1.000
B  0.000 ..  1.000 T  1.000 TT  1.000 M:      0.0
Score finished in csoundPerform().


with csound6
SECTION 1:
new alloc for instr 1:
instr 1:  iamp = 0.100
instr 1:  iiamp = 0.100
B  0.000 ..  1.000 T  1.000 TT  1.000 M:      0.0


* note the name change of the second printed variable
