8    <div style="margin-left:  0px;"> The <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_REPEAT</b> macro
9      defines the maximum number of repetitions supported by each <b>BOOST_PP_REPEAT</b>
10      dimension. </div>
11    <h4>Usage</h4>
12    <div class="code"> <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_REPEAT</b> </div>
13    <h4>Remarks</h4>
14    <div> This macro current expands to <i>256</i>.<br>
15      <br>
16      NOTE: for the current latest versions of Microsoft's VC++ compiler there
17      is a nested macro limit of 256. This means in actuality that the number of
18      repetitions using VC++ is actually less than 256 depending on the
19      repetition macro being used. For the BOOST_PP_REPEAT macro this limit
20      appears to be 252 while for the BOOST_PP_ENUM... series of macros this
21      limit appears to be around 230, before the VC++ compiler gives a "C1009:
22      compiler limit : macros nested too deeply" error. This is a compiler
23      limitation of VC++ which may vary depending on the specific repetition
24      macro being used, and therefore is not a problem the preprocessor library
25      can solve.</div>
