What is the best way of implementing assertion checking in C++?

Question

By that I mean, what do I need to do to have useful assertions in my code?

MFC is quite easy, i just use ASSERT(something).

What\'s the non-MFC way?

Answer 1

use intellisense to open it in visual studio (right click)

// cassert standard header
#include 
#include 

yvals.h is windows stuff. so, as far as assert() itself is concerned, the two ways to include it are identical. it's good practice to use the because often it isn't that simple (namespace wrapping and maybe other magic)

This breaks at caller site for me...

here's an article explaining why you don't want to write this macro yourself.
