CPP Macro: Counter that gives number of instantiations/calls

Question

I want to have a C preprocessor macro that knows the number of instantiations/macro calls of this macro so far. Example:

int main() {
  printf("%d\n", MACRO());
  printf("%d\n", MACRO());
}

Should print

0
1

Is something like this possible?

Note that it is not enough to forward this to a function as proposed below. It should work in the following context:

// global variable
std::vector<bool> calls_hit;

#define OTHER_MACRO() \
{ \
    const int counter = MACRO(); \
    calls_hit.resize(std::max(calls_hit.size(), counter)); \
    calls_hit[counter] = true; \
}

Answer 1

Why must this be a macro? Anyway, you can just wrap a function with a static counter in a macro:

int count_calls() {
    static count = 0;
    return count++;
}

#define MACRO() count_calls()

Answer 2

#define MACRO() (stupid_macro_counter++)
int stupid_macro_counter = 0;

Answer 3

What's wrong with

// global variable
std::vector<bool> calls_hit;

inline void a_function_since_this_is_not_C_after_all()
{
  static unsigned int hits = 0;
  const int counter = hits++;
  calls_hit.resize(std::max(calls_hit.size(), counter));
  calls_hit[counter] = true;
}
