/** @def RT_LIKELY
 * Give the compiler a hint that an expression is very likely to hold true.
 *
 * Some compilers support explicit branch prediction so that the CPU backend
 * can hint the processor and also so that code blocks can be reordered such
 * that the predicted path sees a more linear flow, thus improving cache
 * behaviour, etc.
 *
 * IPRT provides the macros RT_LIKELY() and RT_UNLIKELY() as a way to utilize
 * this compiler feature when present.
 *
 * A few notes about the usage:
 *
 *      - Generally, order your code use RT_LIKELY() instead of RT_UNLIKELY().
 *
 *      - Generally, use RT_UNLIKELY() with error condition checks (unless you
 *        have some _strong_ reason to do otherwise, in which case document it),
 *        and/or RT_LIKELY() with success condition checks, assuming you want
 *        to optimize for the success path.
 *
 *      - Other than that, if you don't know the likelihood of a test succeeding
 *        from empirical or other 'hard' evidence, don't make predictions unless
 *        you happen to be a Dirk Gently character.
 *
 *      - These macros are meant to be used in places that get executed a lot. It
 *        is wasteful to make predictions in code that is executed rarely (e.g.
 *        at subsystem initialization time) as the basic block reordering that this
 *        affects can often generate larger code.
 *
 *      - Note that RT_SUCCESS() and RT_FAILURE() already makes use of RT_LIKELY()
 *        and RT_UNLIKELY().  Should you wish for prediction free status checks,
 *        use the RT_SUCCESS_NP() and RT_FAILURE_NP() macros instead.
 *
 *
 * @returns the boolean result of the expression.
 * @param   expr        The expression that's very likely to be true.

/** @def WORKAROUND_MSVC7_ERROR_C2593_FOR_BOOL_OP
 * Macro to work around error C2593 of the not-so-smart MSVC 7.x ambiguity
 * resolver. The following snippet clearly demonstrates the code causing this
 * error:
 * @code
 *      class A
 *      {
 *      public:
 *          operator bool() const { return false; }
 *          operator int*() const { return NULL; }
 *      };
 *      int main()
 *      {
 *          A a;
 *          if (!a);
 *          if (a && 0);
 *          return 0;
 *      }
 * @endcode
 * The code itself seems pretty valid to me and GCC thinks the same.
 *
 * This macro fixes the compiler error by explicitly overloading implicit
 * global operators !, && and || that take the given class instance as one of
 * their arguments.
 *
 * The best is to use this macro right after the class declaration.
 *
 * @note The macro expands to nothing for compilers other than MSVC.
 *
 * @param Cls Class to apply the workaround to
