Libc++ Configuration Macros
===========================
Libc++ provides a number of configuration macros which can be used to enable
or disable extended libc++ behavior, including enabling "debug mode" or
thread safety annotations.
**_LIBCPP_DEBUG**:
This macro is used to enable assertions and other debugging checks within
libc++. All debugging checks are disabled by default.
**Values**: ``0``, ``1``
Defining ``_LIBCPP_DEBUG`` to ``0`` or greater enables most of libc++'s
assertions. Defining ``_LIBCPP_DEBUG`` to ``1`` enables "iterator debugging"
which provides additional assertions about the validity of iterators used by
the program.
Note that this option has no effect on libc++'s ABI
**_LIBCPP_ENABLE_THREAD_SAFETY_ANNOTATIONS**:
This macro is used to enable -Wthread-safety annotations on libc++'s
``std::mutex`` and ``std::lock_guard``. By default these annotations are
disabled and must be manually enabled by the user.
