I Promised Myself I'd Never Stoop This Low...

If I've looked depressed recently, this is probably why:

// Let the hacks begin! We really need a compiler...
#define ENTER_RPC_METHOD { \
                           pthread_mutex_lock(&fblockGlobalMTX); \
                           rpcMethodStacks[pthread_self()] = \
                                  rpcMethodStacks[pthread_self()] + 1; \
                           pthread_mutex_unlock(&fblockGlobalMTX); \
                         }
#define RPC_RETURN { \
                     int stack = 0;
                     pthread_mutex_lock(&fblockGlobalMTX); \
                     stack = --(rpcMethodStacks[pthread_self()]) \
                     pthread_mutex_unlock(&fblockGlobalMTX); \
                     if( stack == 0) { \
                       send(); \
                       pthread_cond_lock(rpcMutex); \
                       pthread_cond_wait(rpcConVar); \
                       pthread_cond_unlock(rpcMutex); \
                     } \
                   } return

I don't like programing multi-threaded applications, but I really don't want to do so in C++ with PThreads using Macro support. Deadlines loom...

Update

Okay, I at least realized I could put most of this code into methods, so it's not quite as U-G-L-Y any more.
