107 identifier and not a string unlike in the other cases.

109 This macro is mostly useful for testing the expressions involving the
110 @c sizeof operator as they can't be tested by the preprocessor but it is
111 sometimes desirable to test them at the compile time.

114 make unique by using the @c __LINE__ in it but it may still not work if you
115 use it on the same line in two different source files. In this case you may
116 either change the line in which either of them appears on or use the
117 wxCOMPILE_TIME_ASSERT2() macro.
118
119 Also note that Microsoft Visual C++ has a bug which results in compiler
120 errors if you use this macro with 'Program Database For Edit And Continue'
121 (@c /ZI) option, so you shouldn't use it ('Program Database' (@c /Zi) is ok
122 though) for the code making use of this macro.
