C语言assert(断言)简介

一、assert(断言)简介

assert的功能，条件为真，程序继续执行；如果断言为假（false），则程序终止。

assert是个 宏定义 ！

头文件：

#include < assert.h >

原型：

void assert(scalar expression);

返回值：无返回值。

头文件assert.h内容如下：

assert的定义如下：

此句意思如下：

expr为真，
执行 __ASSERT_VOID_CAST (0)  ;
否则执行 __assert_fail (#expr, __FILE__, __LINE__, __ASSERT_FUNCTION))

条件表达式 ，伪代码：

a?b:c
//如果a为真，执行b；
//如果a为假，执行c

二、测试代码

参数数量为2，则输出参数。否则输出错误信息，并终止程序执行。测试代码如下：

#include < stdio.h >
#include < assert.h >


int main(int argv,char *argc[])
{
    printf("argv=%dn",argv);
    assert(argv== 2);
    printf("argc[1]=%sn",argc[1]);
    return 0;
}
