< p id = "label-macros" > Being a < em > template< / em > metaprogramming framework, the MPL concentrates on
getting one thing done well and leaves most of the clearly
preprocessor-related tasks to the corresponding specialized
libraries < a class = "citation-reference" href = "#pre" id = "id1284" > [PRE]< / a > , < a class = "citation-reference" href = "#ve03" id = "id1285" > [Ve03]< / a > . But whether we like it or not, macros play
an important role on today's C++ metaprogramming, and some of
the useful MPL-level functionality cannot be implemented
without leaking its preprocessor-dependent implementation
