What is the define __XC__ ?

[gerrykurz]

The ethernet code is full of conditional assembly statements ifdef __XC__ but nowhere can I find where this is defined or what is means.What is this define used for and where is it defined?

[infiniteimprobability]

It's a define to tell you that the compiler being used to compile the code is the XC compiler (as opposed to C compiler). Handy for when include files are shared between .xc and .c files.
