| 8 | The <b>BOOST_PP_INCLUDE_SELF</b> macro includes a file indirectly. |
| 9 | </div> |
| 10 | <h4>Usage</h4> |
| 11 | <div class="code"> |
| 12 | #include <b>BOOST_PP_INCLUDE_SELF</b>() |
| 13 | </div> |
| 14 | <h4>Arguments</h4> |
| 15 | <dl> |
| 16 | <dt>filename</dt> |
| 17 | <dd> |
| 18 | A quoted or angle-bracketed filename to be included by <b>BOOST_PP_INCLUDE_SELF</b>. |
| 19 | </dd> |
| 20 | </dl> |
| 21 | <h4>Remarks</h4> |
| 22 | <div> |
| 23 | <b>BOOST_PP_INDIRECT_SELF</b> must be defined prior to using this macro. |
| 24 | </div> |
| 25 | <div> |
| 26 | Most preprocessors will not allow a file to directly include itself--even when the file protects itself from such a scenario. |
| 27 | This macro, in combination with <b>BOOST_PP_INDIRECT_SELF</b> allows a file to include itself indirectly. |
| 28 | </div> |
| 29 | <div> |
| 30 | While <b>BOOST_PP_INDIRECT_SELF</b> is being included, <b>BOOST_PP_INCLUDE_SELF</b> defines the macro <b>BOOST_PP_IS_SELFISH</b> to <i>1</i>. |
| 31 | When it returns from the inclusion, <b>BOOST_PP_IS_SELFISH</b> is undefined. |
