[SOLVED] How to make windres understand empty spaces in macro definitions

[napajejenunedk0]

Using Windows, I have a .rc file that uses macro definitions. One of those definitions is defined as:

.pro
@
defineReplace(quoteMacroValue) {
QUOTED_VAL =
!isEmpty(ARGS) {
QUOTED_VAL = "$$quote($$ARGS)"
}

return ($$QUOTED_VAL)
}

LEGAL_TRADEMARKS = All Rights Reserved
DEFINES*=LEGAL_TRADEMARKS_RC=$$quoteMacroValue($$LEGAL_TRADEMARKS)
@

.rc
@
#define MAKESTRING(x) #x
#define EXPAND_MACRO_ARGS_COUNT_1(a) MAKESTRING(a)

...

BEGIN
BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
BEGIN
BLOCK "040904E4"
BEGIN

        ...
        
        VALUE "LegalTrademarks",    EXPAND_MACRO_ARGS_COUNT_1(WINDOWS_RC_FILE_LEGAL_TRADEMARKS)

        ...

    END
END

BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
BEGIN
    VALUE "Translation", 0x409, 1252
END

END
@

When building using MSVC it uses rc resource compiler and it handles the code perfectly well and All Rights Reserved is interpreted as single string when declared as a value for the preprocessor definition LEGAL_TRADEMARKS_RC.

However gcc calls windres and it doesn't couple up the words All, Rights and Reserved into a single string (the actual value of the preprocessor definition), but uses the first one only I think - All and thinks that the rest two - Rights and Reserved are some command-line options to itself (windres).

Probably I should play with the quotes in the:
@
QUOTED_VAL = "$$quote($$ARGS)"
@

line?

How could I specify the macro value, so that the empty spaces are treated as part of the macro's value?

I found the solution. Instead of:

@
"$$quote($$ARGS)"
@

use:
@
$$join(ARGS, \x20)
@
