Synopsis

Description

An Integral Constant wrapper for long.

Header

#include <boost/mpl/long.hpp>

Model of

Integral Constant

Parameters

Parameter Requirement Description
N An integral constant A value to wrap.

Expression semantics

The semantics of an expression are defined only where they differ from, or are not defined in Integral Constant.

For arbitrary integral constant n:

Expression Semantics
long_<c> An Integral Constant x such that x::value == c and x::value_type is identical to long.

Example

typedef long_<8> eight;

BOOST_MPL_ASSERT(( is_same< eight::value_type, long > ));
BOOST_MPL_ASSERT(( is_same< eight::type, eight > ));
BOOST_MPL_ASSERT(( is_same< next< eight >::type, long_<9> > ));
BOOST_MPL_ASSERT(( is_same< prior< eight >::type, long_<7> > ));
BOOST_MPL_ASSERT_RELATION( (eight::value), ==, 8 );
assert( eight() == 8 );
