## Macro BOOST_INTRUSIVE_OPTION_TYPE

BOOST_INTRUSIVE_OPTION_TYPE

## Synopsis

    // In header: <boost/intrusive/pack_options.hpp>

    BOOST_INTRUSIVE_OPTION_TYPE(OPTION_NAME, TYPE, TYPEDEF_EXPR, TYPEDEF_NAME)

## Description

Defines an option class of name OPTION_NAME that can be used to specify a type of type TYPE...

    struct OPTION_NAME<class TYPE>
    {  unspecified_content  };

...that after being combined with `boost::intrusive::pack_options`, will typedef TYPE as a typedef of name TYPEDEF_NAME. Example:

    //[includes and namespaces omitted for brevity]

    //This macro will create the following class:
    //    template<class VoidPointer>
    //    struct my_pointer
    //    { unspecified_content };
    BOOST_INTRUSIVE_OPTION_TYPE(my_pointer, VoidPointer, boost::remove_pointer<VoidPointer>::type, my_pointer_type)

    struct empty_default{};

    typedef pack_options< empty_default, typename my_pointer<void*> >::type::my_pointer_type type;

    BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(( boost::is_same<type, void>::value ));
