<div style="margin-left: 0px;"> The <b>BOOST_PP_OVERLOAD</b> variadic macro expands to the name of a non-variadic macro having a given number of parameters.<br>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<h4>Usage</h4>
|
||
<div class="code"> <b>BOOST_PP_OVERLOAD</b>(<i>prefix</i>,...) <a href="../topics/variadic_macros.html#VNotation" target="_self"><sup>(v)</sup></a><br>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<h4>Arguments</h4>
|
||
<dl>
|
||
<dt>prefix<br>
|
||
</dt><dd>
|
||
The prefix of the non-variadic macro name.
|
||
</dd><dt>...<br>
|
||
</dt><dd><i>
|
||
Variadic data</i>. The number of variadic data
|
||
elements, as determined by BOOST_PP_VARIADIC_SIZE, is appended to the
|
||
prefix to form the output non-variadic macro name.<br>
|
||
</dd>
|
||
</dl>
|
||
<h4>Remarks</h4>
|
||
<div> This macro creates a macro name which depends on the number of elements of variadic data. It should be used in the form of <br>
|
||
BOOST_PP_OVERLOAD(MACRO_NAME_,__VA_ARGS__)(__VA_ARGS__) in order to
|
||
call a non-variadic macro taking a given number of variadic data
|
||
elements as non-variadic arguments. In this way one can invoke a
|
||
variadic macro with a variable number of parameters which calls one of
|
||
a series of non-variadic macros doing very similar things.
