<div style="margin-left: 0px;">
The <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> macro represents a looping construct.
</div>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<div class="code">
<b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b>(<i>pred</i>, <i>op</i>, <i>state</i>)
</div>
<h4>Arguments</h4>
<dl>
<dt>pred</dt>
<dd>
A binary predicate of the form <i>pred</i>(<i>d</i>, <i>state</i>).
This predicate is expanded by <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> with the next available
iteration <i>d</i> and the current <i>state</i>.
This predicate must expand to value in the range of <i>0</i> to <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_MAG</b>.
The construct continues to loop until this predicate returns <i>0</i>.
When this predicate returns <i>0</i>, <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> returns the current <i>state</i>.
</dd>
<dt>op</dt>
<dd>
A binary operation of the form <i>op</i>(<i>d</i>, <i>state</i>).
This operation is expanded by <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> with the next available
iteration <i>d</i> and the current <i>state</i>.
This macro is repeatedly applied to the <i>state</i>, each time producing a new <i>state</i>, until <i>pred</i> returns <i>0</i>.
</dd>
<dt>state</dt>
<dd>
The initial state.
Often this argument is a <i>tuple</i>.
</dd>
</dl>
<h4>Remarks</h4>
<div>
This macro iterates <i>op</i>(<i>d</i>, <i>state</i>) while <i>pred</i>(<i>d</i>, <i>state</i>) is non-zero.
In other words expands to:
<div>
<i>op</i>(<i>d</i>, ... <i>op</i>(<i>d</i>, <i>op</i>(<i>d</i>, <i>state</i>)) ... ).
</div>
</div>
<div>
The <i>d</i> value that is passed to both <i>pred</i> and <i>op</i> represents the next available iteration.
Other macros that have <b>_D</b> suffix variants internally use <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b>--for example, <b>BOOST_PP_ADD</b> and <b>BOOST_PP_ADD_D</b>.
Using these <b>_D</b> versions is not strictly necessary, but passing the <i>d</i> value (that passed to <i>pred</i> or <i>op</i>) to these macros allows them to reenter <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> with maximum efficiency.
</div>
<div>
To directly use this <i>d</i> value, rather than simply passing it to another macro, see <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE_<i>d</i></b>.
</div>
<div>
Previously, this macro could not be used recursively inside <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b>.
This limitation no longer exists, as the library can automatically detect the next available iteration.
