43 Programmers should have enough knowledge to use this library after reading
44 the <a class="link" href="../index.html#scope_exit.introduction" title="Introduction">Introduction</a>, <a class="link" href="getting_started.html" title="Getting Started">Getting
45 Started</a>, and <a class="link" href="tutorial.html" title="Tutorial">Tutorial</a> sections.
46 The <a href="../reference.html" target="_top">Reference</a> section can be consulted
47 at a later point for quick reference. All the other sections of this documentation
48 can be considered optional.
49 </p>
50<p>
51 Some footnotes are marked by the word "<span class="bold"><strong>Rationale</strong></span>".
52 They explain reasons behind decisions made during the design and implementation
53 of this library.
54 </p>
55<p>
56 In most of the examples presented in this documentation, the Boost.Detail/LightweightTest
57 (<code class="literal">boost/detail/lightweight_test.hpp</code>) macro <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_TEST</span></code> is used to check correctness
58 conditions. The <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_TEST</span></code>
59 macro is conceptually similar to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">assert</span></code>
60 but a failure of the checked condition does not abort the program, instead
61 it makes <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">report_errors</span></code> return a non-zero program
62 exit code. <a href="#ftn.scope_exit.getting_started.this_documentation.f0" class="footnote" name="scope_exit.getting_started.this_documentation.f0"><sup class="footnote">[2]</sup></a>

71 The authors originally developed and tested the library on GNU Compiler Collection
72 (GCC) C++ 3.3, 3.4, 4.1, 4.2, 4.5.3 (with and without C++11 features <code class="literal">-std=c++0x</code>),
73 Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) 8.0, and Intel 10.1 under Linux, Cygwin, and
74 Windows 7. However, this library should be usable on any compiler that supports
75 <a href="http://www.boost.org/libs/typeof" target="_top">Boost.Typeof</a> except:

100 This library is composed of header files only. Therefore there is no pre-compiled
101 object file which needs to be installed. Programmers can simply instruct
102 the compiler where to find the library header files (<code class="computeroutput"><span class="special">-</span><span class="identifier">I</span></code> option on GCC, <code class="computeroutput"><span class="special">/</span><span class="identifier">I</span></code> option on MSVC, etc) and compile code
103 using the library.
104 </p>
105<p>
106 The library implementation uses <a href="http://www.boost.org/libs/typeof" target="_top">Boost.Typeof</a>
107 to automatically deduce the types of the <a class="link" href="../index.html" title="Chapter&#160;1.&#160;Boost.ScopeExit 1.1.0">Boost.ScopeExit</a>
108 captured variables (see the <a class="link" href="tutorial.html" title="Tutorial">Tutorial</a>
109 section). In order to compile code in <a href="http://www.boost.org/libs/typeof" target="_top">type-of
110 emulation</a> mode, all types should be properly registered using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_TYPEOF_REGISTER_TYPE</span></code> and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_TYPEOF_REGISTER_TEMPLATE</span></code>, or appropriate
111 <a href="http://www.boost.org/libs/typeof" target="_top">Boost.Typeof</a> headers
112 should be included (see the source code of most examples presented in this
113 documentation).
