Hello,

I have come across the following directive but I don't see a class
name specified in front of the ::Check function. Does anyone
know what this means and how the directive is supposed to work?

#define TEST2(aValue, aExpected) ::Check(aValue, aExpected, __LINE__)

Thanks,

JG

You can call it from any namespace or any class, and even if that namespace
or class has a Check function of its own, the one in the gobal namespace
will be called.

Unless some bloke prepends the macro with the class name for whatever
reason:

SomeClassThatHasCheckMember TEST2(blah, BLAH);
