title: "precompiler directive" "preprocessor directive"
body: <p>I was wondering if "precompile(r) directive" and "preprocessor directive" are the same thing? I am not familiar with the former, but just heard of it and found a little information about it on the internet with this <a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;safe=off&amp;client=ubuntu&amp;hs=j9u&amp;channel=fs&amp;q=%22precompile%20directive%22&amp;aq=f&amp;aqi=g-lv3g-jl1&amp;aql=&amp;oq=" rel="nofollow">Google</a> search, such as p40 of "<a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=ea2SOugw6g8C&amp;pg=PT64&amp;lpg=PT64&amp;dq=%22precompile%20directive%22&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=PHcb2R1p3Z&amp;sig=X_oUv15I2K-lk8mURgSgUVNa4AE&amp;hl=en&amp;ei=-_D4Te3LJYPMgQfk8OXwCw&amp;sa=X&amp;oi=book_result&amp;ct=result&amp;resnum=6&amp;ved=0CD8Q6AEwBQ#v=onepage&amp;q=%22precompile%20directive%22&amp;f=false" rel="nofollow">C++ programming for the absolute beginner</a>" by Dirk Henkemans and Mark Lee.</p>
