Undefined variable error in C macros (for customized prints) - c

Question

I'm trying to make a custom printf that prints the file / line no , along with the error message , depending on the current print level set. I've defined a macro for the same. Given below is the code for the preprocessor:
#define DIE (s) \
printf(s); \
exit(0); \
#define my_print(level,s) \
if(level <= gPrintLevel) \
{ \
char *buffer = (char *)malloc(strlen(s)-1); \
if (NULL != buffer) \
{ \
sprintf(buffer,s); \
printf("[%s][%d]:%s\n",__FUNCTION__,__LINE__,buffer); \
if (level == fatal) \
{\
DIE(s);\
}\
} \
} \
I'm calling the above pre-processor like this from inside a function:
myPrint(2,"Unexpected error encountered\n");
But, I'm getting the below compile errors when I try to compile:
41: error: ‘s’ was not declared in this scope
Please help, what am I doing wrong ? Also, its appreciated if someone can tell me if there's a more elegant way of having customized print statements as above. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Personally, I would simply assume or mandate that the user provide a literal format string. In that case, you can concatenate strings:
#define MYPRINT(fmt, ...) \
printf("Function: %s. Line: %d. " fmt "\n", \
__FUNCTION__, __LINE__, ## __VA_ARGS__);
Usage:
MYPRINT("The flargle %d has unexpected grobule %f", f->q, f->r);
This approach also lets you take advantage of the compiler's ability to analyze the format string statically and warn you about mismatching arguments.
(The code uses a GCC extension involving ## to elide the final comma in case the argument list is empty.)

OK thanks for all the help guys, the variadic macros solution works fine. This is the new defn of the macro now:
#define DIE(fmt) \
do { \
printf(fmt); \
exit(0); \
} while(0); \
#define my_print(x,fmt,...) \
if (x < gPrintLevel) \
{ \
printf("[%s][%u]:" fmt "\n",__FUNCTION__,__LINE__,##__VA_ARGS__); \
if (fatal == x) \
{\
DIE(fmt) \
}\
} \
