The <b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_D</b> macro manually deduces the state of the <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> construct.
</div>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<div class="code">
<b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_D</b>()
</div>
<h4>Remarks</h4>
<div>
This macro is intended to avoid the use of <i>automatic-recursion</i> at deep expansion depths.&nbsp;
<i>Automatic-recursion</i> at such depths can be inefficient on some preprocessors.&nbsp;
It is not intended to be used directly with the invocation of macros with a <b>_D</b> suffix such as:
<div>
<b>BOOST_PP_ADD_D</b>(<b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_D</b>(), <i>x</i>, <i>y</i>)
</div>
If it is used in this context, the <b>_D</b> macro will fail.&nbsp;
The <b>_D</b> macros directly concatenate to the <i>d</i> parameter that is passed to them,
which would prevent <b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_D</b>() from expanding.&nbsp;
Furthermore, it is pointless to use this macro in a situation such as this
because it would already be too late to gain any efficiency.
