For example, you could use it to verify the // size of a static array: // // COMPILE_ASSERT(ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE(content_type_names) == CONTENT_NUM_TYPES, // content_type_names_incorrect_size); // // or to make sure a struct is smaller than a certain size: // // COMPILE_ASSERT(sizeof(foo) < 128, foo_too_large); // // The second argument to the macro is the name of the variable. If // the expression is false, most compilers will issue a warning/error // containing the name of the variable. // TODO(ajm): Hack to avoid multiple definitions until the base/ of webrtc and // libjingle are merged. #if !defined(COMPILE_ASSERT) #if __cplusplus >= 201103L // Under C++11, just use static_assert. #define COMPILE_ASSERT(expr, msg) static_assert(expr, #msg) #else template struct CompileAssert { }; #define COMPILE_ASSERT(expr, msg) \ typedef CompileAssert<(bool(expr))> msg[bool(expr) ? 1 : -1] #endif // __cplusplus >= 201103L #endif // !defined(COMPILE_ASSERT) // Implementation details of COMPILE_ASSERT: // // - COMPILE_ASSERT works by defining an array type that has -1 // elements (and thus is invalid) when the expression is false. // // - The simpler definition // // #define COMPILE_ASSERT(expr, msg) typedef char msg[(expr) ? 1 : -1] // // does not work, as gcc supports variable-length arrays whose sizes // are determined at run-time (this is gcc's extension and not part // of the C++ standard). As a result, gcc fails to reject the // following code with the simple definition: // // int foo; // COMPILE_ASSERT(foo, msg); // not supposed to compile as foo is // // not a compile-time constant. // // - By using the type CompileAssert<(bool(expr))>, we ensures that // expr is a compile-time constant. (Template arguments must be // determined at compile-time.) // // - The outer parentheses in CompileAssert<(bool(expr))> are necessary // to work around a bug in gcc 3.4.4 and 4.0.1.
