Is it possible to use a #define within the text area of a QMessageBox::about()?

[rwhartzell]

Given that VERSION is defined like so, is there some way to expand that #define within the text area of a QMessageBox::about() along with other text?

#define VERSION_MAJOR 0
#define VERSION_MINOR 1
#define VERSION_MICRO 0
#define VERSION_SPECIAL ".alpha-1"
 
#define STRINGIFY0(s) # s
#define STRINGIFY(s) STRINGIFY0(s)
#define VERSION STRINGIFY(VERSION_MAJOR) "." STRINGIFY(VERSION_MINOR) "." STRINGIFY(VERSION_MICRO) "" VERSION_SPECIAL
 
 
QMessageBox::about(this, tr("About Menu"),
    tr("<center><small>VERSION</small></center>"
    "<p>Copyright (c) 2015, Bla Bla Bla...</p>"));

#define VERSION_MAJOR 0
#define VERSION_MINOR 1
#define VERSION_MICRO 0
#define VERSION_SPECIAL ".alpha-1"

#define STRINGIFY0(s) # s
#define STRINGIFY(s) STRINGIFY0(s)
#define VERSION STRINGIFY(VERSION_MAJOR) "." STRINGIFY(VERSION_MINOR) "." STRINGIFY(VERSION_MICRO) "" VERSION_SPECIAL


QMessageBox::about(this, tr("About Menu"),
    tr("<center><small>VERSION</small></center>"
    "<p>Copyright (c) 2015, Bla Bla Bla...</p>"));

QMessageBox::about(this, tr("About Menu"),
    tr("<center><small>VERSION</small></center>"
    "<p>Copyright (c) 2015, Bla Bla Bla...</p>"));

QMessageBox::about(this, tr("About Menu"),
    tr("<center><small>VERSION</small></center>"
    "<p>Copyright (c) 2015, Bla Bla Bla...</p>"));

Are you looking for something like:

QMessageBox::about(this, tr("About Menu"),
     tr("<center><small>%1</small></center>"
     "<p>Copyright (c) 2015, Bla Bla Bla...</p>").arg(VERSION));

QMessageBox::about(this, tr("About Menu"),
     tr("<center><small>%1</small></center>"
     "<p>Copyright (c) 2015, Bla Bla Bla...</p>").arg(VERSION));
