53 * Boolean type for use in \Gromacs C code.
55 * There is no standard size for 'bool' in C++, so when
56 * we previously defined it to int for C code the data types
57 * (and structs) would have different size depending on your compiler,
58 * both at \Gromacs build time and when you use the library.
59 * The only way around this is to NOT assume anything about the C++ type,
60 * so we cannot use the name 'bool' in our C code anymore.

130 * \brief
131 * Keyword to use in C code instead of C99 `inline`.
133 * Some of the C compilers we support do not recognize the C99 keyword
134 * `inline`. This macro should be used in C code and in shared C/C++ headers
135 * to indicate a function is inlined.
136 * C++ code should use plain `inline`, as that is already in C++98.

152 * compilers.

156 /*! \def GMX_CXX11_COMPILATION
157 * \brief
158 * Defined to 1 when compiling as C++11.
160 * While \Gromacs only supports C++11 compilation, there are some parts of the
161 * code that are compiled with other tools than the actual C++ compiler, and
162 * these may not support C++11. Most notable such case is all of CUDA code
163 * (with CUDA versions older than 6.5), but other types of kernels might also
164 * have similar limitations in the future.
166 * The define is intended for conditional compilation in low-level headers that
167 * need to support inclusion from such non-C++11 files, but get significant
168 * benefit (e.g., for correctness checking or more convenient use) from C++11.
169 * It should only be used for features that do not influence the ABI of the
170 * header; e.g., static_asserts or additional helper methods.

180 * Attribute to suppress compiler warnings about unused function parameters.
182 * This attribute suppresses compiler warnings about unused function arguments
183 * by marking them as possibly unused. Some arguments are unused but
184 * have to be retained to preserve a function signature
185 * that must match that of another function.
186 * Some arguments are only used in *some* conditional compilation code paths
187 * (e.g. MPI).

276 * Mainly meant for ignoring values of functions declared with

278 * they need to be fixed, and document the intent in cases where the return
279 * value really can be ignored. It also makes it easy to adapt the approach so
280 * that they don't produce warnings. A cast to void doesn't remove the warning
281 * in gcc, while adding a dummy variable can cause warnings about an unused
282 * variable.
