+ <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_EXPLICIT_OPERATOR_BOOL</span><span class="special">()</span></code> and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_CONSTEXPR_EXPLICIT_OPERATOR_BOOL</span><span class="special">()</span></code> are compatibility helper macros that expand
+ to an explicit conversion operator to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">bool</span></code>.
+ For compilers not supporting explicit conversion operators introduced in C++11
+ the macros expand to a conversion operator that implements the <a href="http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/More_C%2B%2B_Idioms/Safe_bool" target="_top">safe
+ bool idiom</a>. In case if the compiler is not able to handle safe bool
+ idiom well the macros expand to a regular conversion operator to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">bool</span></code>.

+<p>
+ Both macros are intended to be placed within a user's class definition. The
+ generated conversion operators will be implemented in terms of <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">operator</span><span class="special">!()</span></code>
+ that should be defined by user in this class. In case of <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_CONSTEXPR_EXPLICIT_OPERATOR_BOOL</span><span class="special">()</span></code> the generated conversion operator will be
+ declared <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">constexpr</span></code> which requires
+ the corresponding <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">operator</span><span class="special">!()</span></code>
+ to also be <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">constexpr</span></code>.
+ </p>
+<pre class="programlisting"><span class="keyword">template</span><span class="special">&lt;</span> <span class="keyword">typename</span> <span class="identifier">T</span> <span class="special">&gt;</span>
