20 // Synopsis
21 //
22 // This header provides macros for using RTC_EXPORT macros with explicit
23 // template instantiation declarations and definitions.
24 // Generally, the RTC_EXPORT macros are used at declarations,
25 // and GCC requires them to be used at explicit instantiation declarations,
26 // but MSVC requires __declspec(dllexport) to be used at the explicit
27 // instantiation definitions instead.
28 
29 // Usage
30 //
31 // In a header file, write:
32 //
33 //   extern template class RTC_EXPORT_TEMPLATE_DECLARE(RTC_EXPORT) foo<bar>;
34 //
35 // In a source file, write:
36 //
37 //   template class RTC_EXPORT_TEMPLATE_DEFINE(RTC_EXPORT) foo<bar>;
38 
39 // Implementation notes
40 //
41 // On Windows, when building when RTC_EXPORT expands to __declspec(dllexport)),
42 // we want the two lines to expand to:
43 //
44 //     extern template class foo<bar>;
45 //     template class RTC_EXPORT foo<bar>;
46 //
47 // In all other cases (non-Windows, and Windows when RTC_EXPORT expands to
48 // __declspec(dllimport)), we want:
49 //
50 //     extern template class RTC_EXPORT foo<bar>;
51 //     template class foo<bar>;
52 //
53 // The implementation of this header uses some subtle macro semantics to
54 // detect what the provided RTC_EXPORT value was defined as and then
55 // to dispatch to appropriate macro definitions.  Unfortunately,
56 // MSVC's C preprocessor is rather non-compliant and requires special
57 // care to make it work.
58 //
59 // Issue 1.
60 //
61 //   #define F(x)
62 //   F()
63 //
64 // MSVC emits warning C4003 ("not enough actual parameters for macro
65 // 'F'), even though it's a valid macro invocation.  This affects the
66 // macros below that take just an "export" parameter, because export
67 // may be empty.
68 //
69 // As a workaround, we can add a dummy parameter and arguments:
70 //
71 //   #define F(x,_)
72 //   F(,)
73 //
74 // Issue 2.
75 //
76 //   #define F(x) G##x
77 //   #define Gj() ok
78 //   F(j())
79 //
80 // The correct replacement for "F(j())" is "ok", but MSVC replaces it
81 // with "Gj()".  As a workaround, we can pass the result to an
82 // identity macro to force MSVC to look for replacements again.  (This
83 // is why RTC_EXPORT_TEMPLATE_STYLE_3 exists.)
