20/* ISO C 99 <stdbool.h> for platforms that lack it. */
21
22/* Usage suggestions:
23
24 Programs that use <stdbool.h> should be aware of some limitations
25 and standards compliance issues.
26
27 Standards compliance:
28
29 - <stdbool.h> must be #included before 'bool', 'false', 'true'
30 can be used.
31
32 - You cannot assume that sizeof (bool) == 1.
33
34 - Programs should not undefine the macros bool, true, and false,
35 as C99 lists that as an "obsolescent feature".
36
37 Limitations of this substitute, when used in a C89 environment:
38
39 - <stdbool.h> must be #included before the '_Bool' type can be used.
40
41 - You cannot assume that _Bool is a typedef; it might be a macro.
42
43 - Bit-fields of type 'bool' are not supported. Portable code
44 should use 'unsigned int foo : 1;' rather than 'bool foo : 1;'.
45
46 - In C99, casts and automatic conversions to '_Bool' or 'bool' are
47 performed in such a way that every nonzero value gets converted
48 to 'true', and zero gets converted to 'false'. This doesn't work
49 with this substitute. With this substitute, only the values 0 and 1
50 give the expected result when converted to _Bool' or 'bool'.
51

LC
52 - C99 allows the use of (_Bool)0.0 in constant expressions, but
53 this substitute cannot always provide this property.
54

LC
55 Also, it is suggested that programs use 'bool' rather than '_Bool';
56 this isn't required, but 'bool' is more common. */

83 Some HP-UX cc and AIX IBM C compiler versions have compiler bugs when

88 Similar bugs are likely with other compilers as well; this file
89 wouldn't be used if <stdbool.h> was working.
90 So we override the _Bool type.
91 If !@HAVE__BOOL@:
92 Need to define _Bool ourselves. As 'signed char' or as an enum type?
93 Use of a typedef, with SunPRO C, leads to a stupid
94 "warning: _Bool is a keyword in ISO C99".
95 Use of an enum type, with IRIX cc, leads to a stupid
96 "warning(1185): enumerated type mixed with another type".
97 Even the existence of an enum type, without a typedef,
98 "Invalid enumerator. (badenum)" with HP-UX cc on Tru64.
99 The only benefit of the enum, debuggability, is not important
100 with these compilers. So use 'signed char' and no enum. */
