michael@0:  * MOZ_PASTE_PREFIX_AND_ARG_COUNT(aPrefix, ...) counts the number of variadic
michael@0:  * arguments and prefixes it with |aPrefix|. For example:
michael@0:  *
michael@0:  *   MOZ_PASTE_PREFIX_AND_ARG_COUNT(, foo, 42) expands to 2
michael@0:  *   MOZ_PASTE_PREFIX_AND_ARG_COUNT(A, foo, 42, bar) expands to A3
michael@0:  *
michael@0:  * You must pass in between 1 and 50 (inclusive) variadic arguments, past
michael@0:  * |aPrefix|. It is not legal to do
michael@0:  *
michael@0:  *   MOZ_PASTE_PREFIX_AND_ARG_COUNT(prefix)
michael@0:  *
michael@0:  * (that is, pass in 0 variadic arguments). To ensure that a compile-time
michael@0:  * error occurs when these constraints are violated, use the
michael@0:  * MOZ_STATIC_ASSERT_VALID_ARG_COUNT macro with the same variaidc arguments
michael@0:  * wherever this macro is used.
michael@0:  *
michael@0:  * Passing (__VA_ARGS__, <rest of arguments>) rather than simply calling
michael@0:  * MOZ_MACROARGS_ARG_COUNT_HELPER2(__VA_ARGS__, <rest of arguments>) very
michael@0:  * carefully tiptoes around a MSVC bug where it improperly expands __VA_ARGS__
michael@0:  * as a single token in argument lists. For details, see:

michael@0:  * MOZ_STATIC_ASSERT_VALID_ARG_COUNT ensures that a compile-time error occurs

michael@0:  *
michael@0:  * This macro employs a few dirty tricks to function. To detect the zero
michael@0:  * argument case, |(__VA_ARGS__)| is stringified, sizeof-ed, and compared to
michael@0:  * what it should be in the absence of arguments.
michael@0:  *
michael@0:  * Detecting too many arguments is a little trickier. With a valid argument
michael@0:  * count and a prefix of 1, MOZ_PASTE_PREFIX_AND_ARG_COUNT expands to e.g. 14.
michael@0:  * With a prefix of 0.0, it expands to e.g. 0.04. If there are too many
michael@0:  * arguments, it expands to the first argument over the limit. If this
michael@0:  * exceeding argument is a number, the assertion will fail as there is no
michael@0:  * number than can simultaneously be both > 10 and < 0.1. If the exceeding
michael@0:  * argument is not a number, a compile-time error will still occur because the
michael@0:  * exceeding argument is compared to an int and a double.
