GCC has a statment expression feature that allows macro to be defined as: #define

GCC has a statment expression feature that allows macro to be defined as:

#define maxint(a,b) \
   ({int _a = (a), _b = (b); _a > _b ? _a : _b; })

This is illegal in Visual Studio.

Is there an equivalent feature in microsoft visual studio?
(I know, I would better use GCC. But I am just curious).

Or, do we just have to resort to inline functions?

    There is no equivalent in the MS compiler to this non-standard GCC language extension.
