How to cause macro expansion before concatenation?

Question

#define JNI_DECLARE( classname, methodname ) \
     classname  ## methodname( JNI* env ) 

#define JAVA_CLASS Java_com_example
void JNI_DECLARE( JAVA_CLASS, open ) {}

This expands to:

void JAVA_CLASS_open( JNI* env ) {}

How do I get:

void Java_com_example_open( JNI* env ) {}

?

#define JNI_DECLARE_INNER( classname, methodname ) \
     classname  ## _ ## methodname( JNI* env )
#define JNI_DECLARE( classname, methodname ) \
     JNI_DECLARE_INNER(classname, methodname)

As a side note, I pretty confident that the IAR EWARM 6.4 compiler does the wrong thing. I ran this same code in IAR EWARM and gcc, and gcc did what I expected and IAR didn't. – Mark Lakata Oct 08 '13 at 23:04

hmm.. you can use gcc for the preprocessor phase – Karoly Horvath Oct 08 '13 at 23:24
