Classical C preprocessor question….
#define STR_HELPER(x) #x
#define STR(x) STR_HELPER(x)
#define MAJOR_VER 2
#define MINOR_VER 6
#define MY_FILE "/home/user/.myapp" STR(MAJOR_VER) STR(MINOR_VER)
The extra level of indirection will allow the preprocessor to expand the macros before they are converted to strings.
