+// The arraysize(arr) macro returns the # of elements in an array arr.
+// The expression is a compile-time constant, and therefore can be
+// used in defining new arrays, for example.  If you use arraysize on
+// a pointer by mistake, you will get a compile-time error.
+//
+// One caveat is that arraysize() doesn't accept any array of an
+// anonymous type or a type defined inside a function.  In these rare
+// cases, you have to use the unsafe ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE() macro below.  This is
+// due to a limitation in C++'s template system.  The limitation might
+// eventually be removed, but it hasn't happened yet.
+
+// This template function declaration is used in defining arraysize.
+// Note that the function doesn't need an implementation, as we only
+// use its type.

+// ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE performs essentially the same calculation as arraysize,
+// but can be used on anonymous types or types defined inside
+// functions.  It's less safe than arraysize as it accepts some
+// (although not all) pointers.  Therefore, you should use arraysize
+// whenever possible.
+//
+// The expression ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE(a) is a compile-time constant of type
+// size_t.
+//
+// ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE catches a few type errors.  If you see a compiler error
+//
+//   "warning: division by zero in ..."
+//
+// when using ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE, you are (wrongfully) giving it a pointer.
+// You should only use ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE on statically allocated arrays.
+//
+// The following comments are on the implementation details, and can
+// be ignored by the users.
+//
+// ARRAYSIZE_UNSAFE(arr) works by inspecting sizeof(arr) (the # of bytes in
+// the array) and sizeof(*(arr)) (the # of bytes in one array
+// element).  If the former is divisible by the latter, perhaps arr is
+// indeed an array, in which case the division result is the # of
+// elements in the array.  Otherwise, arr cannot possibly be an array,
+// and we generate a compiler error to prevent the code from
+// compiling.
+//
+// Since the size of bool is implementation-defined, we need to cast
+// !(sizeof(a) & sizeof(*(a))) to size_t in order to ensure the final
+// result has type size_t.
+//
+// This macro is not perfect as it wrongfully accepts certain
+// pointers, namely where the pointer size is divisible by the pointee
+// size.  Since all our code has to go through a 32-bit compiler,
+// where a pointer is 4 bytes, this means all pointers to a type whose
+// size is 3 or greater than 4 will be (righteously) rejected.

+//
+//  As shown in the example above, the FALLTHROUGH_INTENDED macro should be
+//  followed by a semicolon. It is designed to mimic control-flow statements
+//  like 'break;', so it can be placed in most places where 'break;' can, but
+//  only if there are no statements on the execution path between it and the
+//  next switch label.
+//
+//  When compiled with clang in C++11 mode, the FALLTHROUGH_INTENDED macro is
+//  expanded to [[clang::fallthrough]] attribute, which is analysed when
+//  performing switch labels fall-through diagnostic ('-Wimplicit-fallthrough').
+//  See clang documentation on language extensions for details:
+//  http://clang.llvm.org/docs/LanguageExtensions.html#clang__fallthrough

+//  of code.
