From: Paul Eggert Date: Fri, 6 May 2011 05:43:18 +0000 (-0700) Subject: assert-h: new module, which supports C1X-style static_assert X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8b401988f8558104b56c0ee36a4e75b1230ad371;p=pspp assert-h: new module, which supports C1X-style static_assert * lib/assert.in.h, m4/assert_h.m4, modules/assert-h: New files. * lib/verify.h: Revamp so that this can be copied into assert.h, while retaining the ability to use it standalone as before. Rename private identifiers so as not to encroach on the standard C namespace, since this is now used by assert.h. (_GL_VERIFY_TYPE): New macro, factoring out differing parts of the old verify_true. (_GL_VERIFY_TRUE): New macro, with much of the contents of the old verify_true. Use _GL_VERIFY_TYPE. (_GL_VERIFY): New macro, with much of the contents of the old verify. (static_assert): New macro, if _GL_STATIC_ASSERT_H is defined and static_assert is not; _GL_STATIC_ASSERT_H is defined when this file is copied into the replacement assert.h. (_Static_assert): New macro, if _GL_STATIC_ASSERT_H is defined and _Static_assert is not built in. (verify_true, verify): Define only if _GL_STATIC_ASSERT_H is not defined, and use the new macros mentioned above. * doc/posix-headers/assert.texi: Document this. --- diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 3c60a4e8ee..b57e17beac 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,25 @@ +2011-05-05 Paul Eggert + + assert-h: new module, which supports C1X-style static_assert + * lib/assert.in.h, m4/assert_h.m4, modules/assert-h: New files. + * lib/verify.h: Revamp so that this can be copied into assert.h, + while retaining the ability to use it standalone as before. + Rename private identifiers so as not to encroach on the + standard C namespace, since this is now used by assert.h. + (_GL_VERIFY_TYPE): New macro, factoring out differing parts of + the old verify_true. + (_GL_VERIFY_TRUE): New macro, with much of the contents of + the old verify_true.
