8 The <b>BOOST_PP_COMMA_IF</b> macro conditionally expands to a comma.
9 </div>
10 <h4>Usage</h4>
11 <div class="code">
12 <b>BOOST_PP_COMMA_IF</b>(<i>cond</i>)
13 </div>
14 <h4>Arguments</h4>
15 <dl>
16 <dt>cond</dt>
17 <dd>
18 The condition that determines if a the macro expands to a comma or nothing.&nbsp;
19 Valid values range from <i>0</i> to <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_MAG</b>.
20 </dd>
21 </dl>
22 <h4>Remarks</h4>
23 <div>
24 If <i>cond</i> expands to <i>0</i>, this macro expands to nothing.&nbsp;
25 Otherwise, it expands to a comma.
26 </div>
27 <div>
28 The preprocessor interprets commas as argument separators in macro invocations.&nbsp;
29 Because of this, commas require special handling.
