With the C/C++ preprocessor, is there a way to have a macro
argument expand like this? (where '??????' is what I don't know what

#define FACTORY_OF(a)  ??????
FACTORY_OF(Bar).blah

// Make that expand to:
BarFactory.blah

Oops, found what I needed here:

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Concatenation.html

Solution:
#define FACTORY_OF(a)  a##Factory
