[Gdal-dev] SWIG / TestCapability / Ruby

[s duclos]

Nightmare are made of these 

In "Code Complete" Steve McConnell (p. 369) use:

#define TRUE (1==1)
#define FALSE (!TRUE)

So your a bit more abstract.

C99 (and C++) has true/false already and bool type


The fun start when mixing things:
_Bool/bool/BOOL/../true/True/TRUE/etc.
