Summary0005087: __LINE__ macro should return integer
DescriptionThe __LINE__ TTCN-3 macro is currently defined to return the line number as a charstring value. The macros (in general) were requested by 3GPP and the resolution of CR415 has chosen the names of the macros to be in line with the standard syntax and semantics of C/C++ preprocessors. However, in the latter __LINE__ is replaced by an integer value and not with a string value. See for example: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Standard-Predefined-Macros.html [^]

Thus, currently TTCN-3 defines a semantics for __LINE__ that deviates from other languages.

Proposal: change the return type of the __LINE__ macro to integer in $D.3.

According to the minutes of CR resolution meeting(49TD13r2)new suggestion uploaded.

While v3.4.1 and v4.1.1 has defined __LINE__ macro as a charstring we have to inform tool vendors have already developed __LINE__ macro that their solution also compliant with the standard.
