I.e., check that bad uses of the types (e.g., involving mismatching types) would be caught at compile time. If the expression is valid, also check whether the expression has the right type. EXPR must be defined in terms of some of the template parameters, so that template substitution failure discards the overload instead of causing a real compile error. TYPES is thus the list of types involved in the expression, and TYPENAMES is the same list, but with each element prefixed by "typename". These are passed as template parameter types to the templates within the macro. VALID is a boolean that indicates whether the expression is supposed to be valid or invalid. EXPR_TYPE is the expected type of EXPR. Only meaningful iff VALID is true. If VALID is false, then you must pass "void" as expected type. Each invocation of the macro is wrapped in its own namespace to avoid ODR violations. The generated namespace only includes the line number, so client code should wrap sets of calls in a test-specific namespace too, to fully guarantee uniqueness between the multiple clients in the codebase. */ #define CHECK_VALID_EXPR_INT(TYPENAMES, TYPES, VALID, EXPR_TYPE, EXPR) \ namespace CONCAT (check_valid_expr, __LINE__) { \ \ template \ struct archetype \ { \ }; \ \ static_assert (gdb::is_detected_exact, \ archetype, TYPES>::value == VALID, \ ""); \ } /* namespace */ /* A few convenience macros that support expressions involving a varying numbers of types.
