//
// Intended as an alternative to type_traits::yes_type and type_traits::no_type.
// Provides an arbitrary number of types (case_<0>, case_<1>, ...) for
// determining the results of overload resultion using 'sizeof', plus a uniform
// means of using the result. yes_type and no_type are typedefs for case_<1>
// and case_<0>. A single case with negative argument, case_<-1>, is also
// provided, for convenience.
//
// This header may be included any number of times, with
// BOOST_SELECT_BY_SIZE_MAX_CASE defined to be the largest N such that case_<N>
// is needed for a particular application. It defaults to 2.
//
// This header depends only on Boost.Config and Boost.Preprocessor. Dependence
// on Type Traits or MPL was intentionally avoided, to leave open the
// possibility that select_by_size could be used by these libraries.
//
// Example usage:
//
// #define BOOST_SELECT_BY_SIZE_MAX_CASE 7 // Needed for > 2 cases.
// #include <boost/utility/select_by_size.hpp>
//
// using namespace boost::utility;
//
// case_<0> helper(bool); // could use 'case_<false>' or 'no_type'.
// case_<1> helper(int); // could use 'case_<true>' or' yes_type'.
// case_<2> helper(unsigned);
// case_<3> helper(long);
// case_<4> helper(unsigned long);
// case_<5> helper(float);
// case_<6> helper(double);
// case_<7> helper(const char*);
//
// struct test {
// static const int value =
// select_by_size< sizeof(helper(9876UL)) >::value;
// BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(value == 4);
// };
//
// For compilers with integral constant expression problems, e.g. Borland 5.x,
// one can also write
//
// struct test {
// BOOST_SELECT_BY_SIZE(int, value, helper(9876UL));
// };
//
// to define a static integral constant 'value' equal to
//
// select_by_size< sizeof(helper(9876UL)) >::value.
//
// Include guards surround all contents of this header except for explicit
// specializations of select_by_size for case_<N> with N > 2.
