<h4>Remarks</h4>
|
|
|
|
<div>
|
|
|
|
This macro appends a new head to an existing <i>list</i> or creates a <i>list</i> from <b>BOOST_PP_LIST_NIL</b>.
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<div>
|
|
|
|
This macro is no longer necessary.
|
|
|
|
For example...
|
|
|
|
<div>
|
|
|
|
<b>BOOST_PP_LIST_CONS</b>(a, <b>BOOST_PP_LIST_CONS</b>(b, <b>BOOST_PP_LIST_NIL</b>)))
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
...is just an explicit way of writing the following:
|
|
|
|
<div>
|
|
|
|
(a, (b, <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>))
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Because of this, this macro is deprecated.
