Expands to nothing. Used with BOOST_PP_IF() and as an unused parameter.

Example usage as the implementation of BOOST_PP_COMMA_IF(C):

  #define BOOST_PP_COMMA_IF(C)\
    BOOST_PP_IF(C,BOOST_PP_COMMA,BOOST_PP_EMPTY)()

Example usage as an unused macro parameter:

  #define BOOST_PP_DEF(CV)\
    template\
    CV() typename implement_subscript_using_begin_subscript::value_type&\
      implement_subscript_using_begin_subscript::operator[]\
      ( index_type\
          i\
      ) CV()\
    { return base::begin()[i];\
    }

  BOOST_PP_DEF(BOOST_PP_EMPTY)
  BOOST_PP_DEF(const BOOST_PP_EMPTY)
  #undef BOOST_PP_DEF

The above expands to:

  template
  typename implement_subscript_using_begin_subscript::value_type&
    implement_subscript_using_begin_subscript::operator[]
    ( index_type
        i
    )
  { return base::begin()[i];
  }

  template
  const typename implement_subscript_using_begin_subscript::value_type&
    implement_subscript_using_begin_subscript::operator[]
    ( index_type
        i
    ) const
  { return base::begin()[i];
  }

In case you wonder, the above code is part of a generalized layer for implementing the subscripting operators of a random access container.
