Preprocessor to expand my @ macros

[AndyS01]

I need to hook in a preprocessor that runs before run/compile time, but I can't find any help on this.  I already have some AutoIT code to read a file and replace my @ThisFileName macros with the actual source file being reprocessed.  This macro will be used to emit the filename of the source file or my library UDFs.  So, I want to run it when parsing each source file and each include file.

I don't know how to hook my code into the run/build process.  I was kind of looking for a tutorial or an example of installing the hooks.

You will want to use one of these directives:

;===============================================================================================================
; RUN BEFORE AND AFTER definitions
; The following directives can contain: these variables
;   %in% , %out%, %outx64%, %icon% which will be replaced by the fullpath\filename.
;   %scriptdir% same as @ScriptDir and %scriptfile% = filename without extension.
;   %fileversion% is the information from the #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Fileversion directive
;   %scitedir% will be replaced by the SciTE program directory
;   %autoitdir% will be replaced by the AutoIt3 program directory
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Stop_OnError=               ;(Y/N) Stop when Returncode <> 0
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Before_Admin=               ;(Y/N) Run subsequent Run_Before statements with #RequireAdmin. Default=N
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_After_Admin=                ;(Y/N) Run subsequent Run_After statements with #RequireAdmin. Default=N
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Before=                     ;process to run before compilation - multiple records will be processed in sequence
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_After=                      ;process to run after compilation - multiple records will be processed in sequence
 

On a new line, type #auto and see what's there. Then hit F1 on the directive chosen for help on Wrapper directives (and much more information).

The 'run before' refers to when you're compiling (F7), not when you're running (F5)

So, no.
