The <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_NIL</b> macro is a placeholder macro for an empty <i>seq</i>.
|
|||
|
It is only valid if it's elements are appended to the end of this empty
|
|||
|
"seq."

Usage

<h4>

|
Remarks
|
|||
|
</h4>
|
|||
|
<div>
|
|||
|
This macro is a utility macro intended as a empty starting point for appending
|
|||
|
to the tail. It is <i>not</i> a nil <i>seq</i>. When an element is
|
|||
|
appended to this macro, it expands on the element and to the element--thereby
|
|||
|
removing itself. For example, both <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_NIL</b>(<i>x</i>) and <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_PUSH_BACK</b>(<b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_NIL</b>,
|
|||
|
<i>x</i>) expand to <i>x</i>.
|
|||
|
</div>
|
|||
|
<div>
|
|||
|
If any <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_</b>* macro (other than <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_PUSH_BACK</b>)
|
|||
|
is invoked with an argument that contains <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_NIL</b>, the behavior
|
|||
|
is undefined and in most cases will result in obscure errors.
|
|||
|
</div>
|
|||
|
<div>
|
|||
|
The closest thing available to <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_NIL</b> for appending to the
|
|||
|
head is <b>BOOST_PP_EMPTY</b>. After all the elements have been
|
|||
|
prepended, empty parenthesis can be invoked on the tail to remove the <b>BOOST_PP_EMPTY</b>.
|
|||
|
As with <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_NIL</b>, passing an argument that contains <b>BOOST_PP_EMPTY</b>
|
|||
|
to any <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_</b>* macro (other than <b>BOOST_PP_SEQ_PUSH_FRONT</b>)
|
|||
|
is undefined.
|
|||
|
</div>
|
|||
|
<div>
|
|||
|
(It is also possible to start with an extra element and pop it off when you
|
|||
|
have finished appending to it.)
|
|||
|
</div>
|
|||
|
<div>
|
|||
|
In C99, neither of these macros are necessary since it is legal to pass empty
|
|||
|
arguments.
