Variadic Sequence

Description

A |Variadic Sequence| is a member of a family of sequence classes with both variadic and numbered forms. If seq is a generic name for some |Variadic Sequence|, its variadic form allows us to specify a sequence of n elements |t1...tn|, for any n from 0 up to a `preprocessor-configurable limit`__ BOOST_MPL_LIMIT_seq_SIZE, using the following notation:

By contrast, each numbered sequence form accepts the exact number of elements that is encoded in the name of the corresponding class template:

seqn<|t1...tn|>

For numbered forms, there is no predefined top limit for n, aside from compiler limitations on the number of template parameters.

Expression requirements

|In the following table...| seq is a placeholder token for the actual |Variadic Sequence| name.

Expression Type Complexity
seq<|t1...tn|> |Forward Sequence| Amortized constant time
seq<|t1...tn|>::type |Forward Sequence| Amortized constant time
seqn<|t1...tn|> |Forward Sequence| Amortized constant time
seqn<|t1...tn|>::type |Forward Sequence| Amortized constant time

Expression semantics

typedef seq<|t1...tn|> s;
typedef seqn<|t1...tn|> s;
Semantics:s is a sequence of elements |t1...tn|.
Postcondition:size<s>::value == n.
typedef seq<|t1...tn|>::type s;
typedef seqn<|t1...tn|>::type s;
Semantics:s is identical to seqn<|t1...tn| >.
Postcondition:size<s>::value == n.
