I would really like to use AST macros for the following use case:
myAssert( x < y);
//will print, on failure, a message, along with all values appearing

x<y failed: x=..., y=...
myAssert( fun(x,y)==z1+z2)
//likewise, but nesting down to all individual variables appearing
inside the macro:
x=..., y=..., fun(x,y)=..., z1=..., z2=..., bar(z1+z2)=...
This would advantageously replace the plethora of unittest helpers found
in other languages, eg: CHECK_EQ, CHECK_LEQ, etc.
Invaluable for debugging or informative unittests and logs.
Agree. That's the first example in the DIP. Although a very simplified
version.
