// Debugging macros
//
// All debugging macros rely on ASSERT() which in turn calls user-defined
// OnAssert() function. To keep things simple, it's called even when the
// expression is TRUE (i.e. everything is ok) and by default does nothing: just
// returns the same value back. But if you redefine it to do something more sexy
// (popping up a message box in your favourite GUI, sending you e-mail or
// whatever) it will affect all ASSERTs, FAILs and CHECKs in your code.
//
// Warning: if you don't like advices on programming style, don't read
// further! ;-)
//
// Extensive use of these macros is recommended! Remember that ASSERTs are
// disabled in final (without __WXDEBUG__ defined) build, so they add strictly
// nothing to your program's code. On the other hand, CHECK macros do stay
// even in release builds, but in general are not much of a burden, while
// a judicious use of them might increase your program's stability.
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Use of these suppresses compiler warnings about testing constant expression
WXDLLEXPORT_DATA(extern const bool) wxTrue;
WXDLLEXPORT_DATA(extern const bool) wxFalse;
// Macros which are completely disabled in 'release' mode
//
// NB: these functions are implemented in src/common/appcmn.cpp
