The compiler pre-processor will not re expand the macro that you define. That is it will blindly replace whatever string is found in the macro statement with the string that it finds in the definition. For example, Can we have recursive macros? or Macro recursive expansion to a sequence and C preprocessor, recursive macros

That is, recursive(a,b,c,d) will be expanded to a:recursive(b,c,d) and the pre-processor will then continue to the next line in the base code. It will not loop around to try to continue to expand the string (see the links that I cited).
