The <b>BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE</b> macro stringizes its argument after it has been expanded.
</div>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<div class="code">
<b>BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE</b>(<i>text</i>)
</div>
<h4>Arguments</h4>
<dl>
<dt>text</dt>
<dd>
The text to be converted to a string literal.
</dd>
</dl>
<h4>Remarks</h4>
<div>
The preprocessor stringizing operator (<b>#</b>) prevents arguments from expanding.&nbsp;
This macro allows its argument to expand before it is stringized.
