The BOOST_PP_TUPLE_ELEM macro extracts an element from a tuple.

Usage

BOOST_PP_TUPLE_ELEM(i, tuple) (v)

or

BOOST_PP_TUPLE_ELEM(size, i, tuple) (v)

Arguments

size
The size of the tuple.  The size is ignored.
i
The zero-based index into the tuple of the element to be extracted.  Valid values range from 0 to size - 1.
tuple
The tuple from which an element is to be extracted.

Remarks

You can invoke the variadic macro as BOOST_PP_TUPLE_ELEM(i,tuple), or BOOST_PP_TUPLE_ELEM(size,i,tuple) for backward compatibility.
