That check needs to visit all symbols in a enum and confirm that each
of them is in a certain range.
I thought of StaticAssert, but it cannot run a code and I don't know
of a syntax that loops through all symbols in a enumeration so I think
we needs to write a static assertion on every symbol in the
enumeration, which seems to be a kind of stupid.
enum hoge
{
a = '1',
b = '2',
c = '3'
};
StaticAssertDecl((unsigned int)(a | b | c ...) <= 0xff, "too large symbol value");
I didn't come up with a way to apply static assertion on each symbol
definition line.
regards.
