<div style="margin-left: 0px;">
The <b>BOOST_PP_ENUM</b> macro generates a comma-separated list.
</div>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<div class="code">
<b>BOOST_PP_ENUM</b>(<i>count</i>, <i>macro</i>, <i>data</i>)
</div>
<h4>Arguments</h4>
<dl>
<dt>count</dt>
<dd>
The number of repetitious calls to <i>macro</i>.&nbsp;
Valid values range from <i>0</i> to <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_REPEAT</b>.
</dd>
<dt>macro</dt>
<dd class="incompatibility">
A ternary operation of the form <i>macro</i>(<i>z</i>, <i>n</i>, <i>data</i>).&nbsp;
This macro is expanded by <b>BOOST_PP_ENUM</b> with the next available repetition depth,
the current repetition number, and the auxiliary <i>data</i> argument.&nbsp;
</dd>
<dt>data</dt>
<dd>
Auxiliary data passed to <i>macro</i>.
</dd>
</dl>
<h4>Remarks</h4>
<div>
This macro expands to the comma-separated sequence:
<div class="incompatibility">
<i>macro</i>(<i>z</i>, <i>0</i>, <i>data</i>), <i>macro</i>(<i>z</i>, <i>1</i>, <i>data</i>), ... <i>macro</i>(<i>z</i>, <i>count</i> - <i>1</i>, <i>data</i>)
</div>
</div>
<div>
The <i>z</i> value that is passed to <i>macro</i> represents the next available repetition dimension.&nbsp;
Other macros that have <b>_Z</b> suffix variants internally use <b>BOOST_PP_REPEAT</b>--for example, <b>BOOST_PP_ENUM_PARAMS</b> and <b>BOOST_PP_ENUM_PARAMS_Z</b>.&nbsp;
Using these <b>_Z</b> versions is not strictly necessary, but passing the <i>z</i> value (that is passed to <i>macro</i>) to these macros allows them to reenter <b>BOOST_PP_REPEAT</b> with maximum efficiency.
</div>
<div>
To directly use this <i>z</i> value, rather than simply passing it to another macro, see <b>BOOST_PP_ENUM_<i>z</i></b>.
</div>
<div>
Previously, this macro could not be used recursively inside <b>BOOST_PP_REPEAT</b>.&nbsp;
This limitation no longer exists, as the library can automatically detect the next available repetition depth.
