13170	BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE_TEMPLATE don't want typedef for list	Oleksandr Guteniev <gutenev@…>	Raffi Enficiaud	"It is possible to test several types using BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE_TEMPLATE

{{{
typedef boost::mpl::list<int,long,unsigned char> test_types;

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE_TEMPLATE( my_test, T, test_types )
{
  BOOST_TEST( sizeof(T) == (unsigned)4 );
}
}}}

But if I don't want to introduce a typedef not used elsewhere, as every individual test would have separate type list:

{{{
BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE_TEMPLATE( 
   my_test, 
   T,
   boost::mpl::list<
     int,
     long,
     unsigned char
   > )
{
  BOOST_TEST( sizeof(T) == (unsigned)4 );
}
}}}
The code above doesn't compile though due to comma in macro. It can be worked around, but workarounds seems to be worse than having extra typedef.

I propose using variadic macro for types parameter and make the example above compiling.
