ASSERT(3) Minix Programmer's Manual ASSERT(3)
NAME
assert - program verification
SYNOPSIS
#include <assert.h>
void assert(int expression)
DESCRIPTION
Assert is a macro that indicates expression is expected to be true at
this point in the program. It causes an abort(3) with a diagnostic
comment on the standard output when expression is false (0). Compiling
with the cc(1) option -DNDEBUG effectively deletes assert from the
program.
DIAGNOSTICS
`Assertion "expression" failed: file f line n.' F is the source file and
n the source line number of the assert statement.
