| The <b>BOOST_PP_TUPLE_EAT</b> macro expands to a macro that eats a <i>tuple</i>. |
| </div> |
| <h4>Usage</h4> |
| <div class="code"> |
| <b>BOOST_PP_TUPLE_EAT</b>(<i>size</i>)<br> |
| <br> |
| or<br> |
| <br> |
| <b>BOOST_PP_TUPLE_EAT</b>(<i>size</i>) <a href="../topics/variadic_macros.html#VNotation" target="_self"><sup>(v)</sup></a><b></b><br> |
| </div> |
| <h4>Arguments</h4> |
| <dl> |
| <dt>size</dt> |
| <dd> |
| The size of the <i>tuple</i> to be eaten. |
| Valid <i>tuple</i> sizes range from <i>1</i> to <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_TUPLE</b>. |
| </dd> |
| </dl> |
| <h4>Remarks</h4> |
| <div> |
| The <i>size</i> argument must be the actual size of the <i>tuple</i> in the non-variadic version. <br> |
| <br>For the variadic version <a href="../topics/variadic_macros.html#VNotation" target="_self"><sup>(v)</sup></a> the |
| size may be left out |
| completely so that the macro can be invoked as BOOST_PP_TUPLE_EAT(); you may get a warning from some compilers, but the |
| functionality will still work. If you specify a size in the variadic |
| version, it will be ignored, but the warning from some compilers will |
| not occur.<br> |
