body: <p>Whats wrong with these pre-processor directive in C#</p>
  
  <pre><code>#define OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "E:\asdf\sdfg\jhkl\"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I also tried giving:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#define OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "E:\\asdf\\sdfg\\jhkl\\"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>for both I get error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Error 1   Single-line comment or
    end-of-line expected</p>
  </blockquote>
