- [section:vmd_detail Functional groups]
- The particular constructs for which VMD has functionality
- can be divided into these categories:
- # Emptiness
- # Identifiers
- # Numbers
- # Types
- # Boost PP data types ( array, list, seq, and tuple )
- # Sequences
- # Additional helper variadic macros
- The first six categories delineate the data types which VMD can parse.
- The last category presents additional macros which will prove helpful
- for a macro programmer using variadic macros with VMD and Boost PP.
- A general explanation of each of these categories will follow in the
- appropriate place in the documentation.
- Furthermore VMD macros for working with the above data types which VMD
- understands can be divided into 'specific' and 'generic' macros.
- The specific macros ask whether some input data is a particular
- data type. The generic macros work with input data as any data
- type while allowing the programmer to separately query the type
- of data.
- Both specific and generic macros have their place and the macro
- programmer can decide which to use for any given situation.
