I'm building micropython which is meant to be compiled as C-code; my project team wants it compiled as C++ code so we don't have to mix C and C++ code.

Ok no big deal except parse.c contains

#define or(n) (RULE_ACT_OR | n)

And the C++ compiler says

error : "or" cannot be used as a macro name as it is an operator in C++

I definitely don't want to start messing with the micropython source.

QUESTION

Is there a C++ gcc compiler option to undefine one (or all) the alternative tokens?

**TL;DR**: `-fno-operator-names` – StoryTeller - Unslander Monica Nov 01 '17 at 18:10
Is it very clever to redefine existing definitions...? – Klaus Nov 01 '17 at 18:11

@Klaus I want to modify it as little as possible to make integration with future micropython releases easier. – Bob Nov 01 '17 at 18:15
