The <b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_Z</b> macro manually deduces the state of the <b>BOOST_PP_REPEAT</b> construct.
</div>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<div class="code">
<b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_Z</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>_Z</b> suffix such as:
<div>
<b>BOOST_PP_ENUM_PARAMS_Z</b>(<b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_Z</b>(), (a, (b, (c, <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>))))
</div>
If it is used in this context, the <b>_Z</b> macro will fail.&nbsp;
The <b>_Z</b> macros directly concatenate to the <i>r</i> parameter that is passed to them,
which would prevent <b>BOOST_PP_DEDUCE_Z</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.
