Boost.Preprocessor

Examples

array_arithmetic.c	Implements over 2200 functions for 1-dimensional arithmetic array manipulation in C. The idea is to use preprocessor data structures, lists and tuples, for storing metainformation to be used for generating the actual C code.
catch_builtin.cpp	Demonstrates the usage of lists and BOOST_PP_LIST_FOR_EACH().
count_down.c	Trivial example of using BOOST_PP_WHILE() that simply counts down from N to 0 ultimately expanding to a 0.
delay.c	Implements a macro whose expansion takes exponential amount of time.
duffs_device.c	Uses the preprocessor library to implement a generalized macro for implementing a Duff's Device.
is_integral.cpp	Demonstrates the usage of preprocessor lists for generating C++ code.
linear_fib.c	Shows how BOOST_PP_WHILE() can be used for implementing macros.
note.c	Shows how BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE() can be used to allow macro expansion before stringization.
repeat_2d.c	Implements a generalized macro for 2D repetition using the simple repetition primitives of the preprocessor library.
static_assert.c	Shows how BOOST_PP_CAT() can be used to allow macro expansion before token concatenation.
subscript_layer.cpp	Shows how BOOST_PP_EMPTY can be used as an unused or empty parameter.
