Redlib semihost Preprocessor define

Is there a C preprocessor define that gets set when the semihost library is used?

I want to be able to redefine a symbol based on if the semihost library is used.

Just to follow up on this, can you explain in more detail exactly what you are trying to achieve here?  There may well be an alternative approach.

Yeah, now that I've thought about it more I can just use NDEBUG since I just wanted to remove some semihosting functions from the binary with a release build.

#if defined NDEBUG
#define debug_puts(s)
#else
#define debug_puts(s) __sys_write0(s)
#endif

int main(void) {


  debug_puts("Begin Main Loop:\n");

This is not possible, because none/nohost/semihost is a library selection. That is, it affects the libraries that you link with - it does not affect the compilation in any way.
