.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm CTASSERT
|
|
.Nd compile time assertion macro
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/param.h
|
|
.In sys/systm.h
|
|
.Fn CTASSERT expression
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn CTASSERT
|
|
macro evaluates
|
|
.Fa expression
|
|
at compile time and causes a compiler error if it is false.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn CTASSERT
|
|
macro is useful for asserting the size or alignment of important
|
|
data structures and variables during compilation, which would
|
|
otherwise cause the code to fail at run time.
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn CTASSERT
|
|
macro should not be used in a header file.
|
|
It is implemented using a dummy typedef, with a name (based on line number)
|
|
that may conflict with a
|
|
.Fn CTASSERT
|
|
in a source file including that header.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
Assert that the size of the
|
|
.Vt uuid
|
|
structure is 16 bytes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl "CTASSERT(sizeof(struct uuid) == 16);"
