on the "#define" line.

line number of the macro call, and the output of

.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
|
|
No value is returned.
|
|
|
|
.SH "CONFORMING TO"
|
|
|
|
This is a GNU extension.
|
|
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
|
|
The purpose of the assert macros is to help the programmer find bugs in
|
|
|
|
his program, things that cannot happen unless there was a coding mistake.
|
|
|
|
However, with system or library calls the situation is rather different,
|
|
|
|
and error returns can happen, and will happen, and should be tested for.
|
2007-06-22 19:42:52 +00:00
|
|
|
Not by an assert, where the test goes away when
|
|
|
|
.B NDEBUG
|
|
|
|
is defined,
|
2007-04-12 22:42:49 +00:00
|
|
|
but by proper error handling code.
|
|
|
|
Never use this macro.
