Verify

Verify is a meta assertion library using libassert with a builtin fallback to a generic std::abort method when required for unsupported platforms.

Usage

There's three primary ways to call Verify:

  1. VERIFY(condition)
  2. VERIFY(condition, error_string)
  3. VERIFY(condition, error_string, variables...)

These arguments do respectively:

  • condition: holds the boolean test. If this returns false it will trigger an assertion. This will always get evaluated unless NDEBUG is defined, then it would get substituted with a (void)0 instead.
  • error_string: can hold an extra human readable error message to explain what occurred. Needs to support the << to std:err. Recommended it to be a string literal.
  • variables: can hold a list of extra variables and will print their currently held data. Currently supported in libassert, otherwise these arguments are ignored.

Limitations

Due to how the variadic macros are defined header only, you may only have up to 32 arguments in a single call. If you have a usecase where you need more than this, please open an issue.
