Re: Why is syntax error 'assert(false, "some text")' not discovered by Visual Studio?

But even if assert(e) expands to nothing, the compiler should report an error if you pass two arguments to the assert macro that takes just one. At least Clang on macOS and gcc on Linux do:

assert.cpp:5:17: error: too many arguments provided to function-like macro invocation
  assert(false, "sdsdf");

and

assert.cpp:5:24: error: macro "assert" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 1
   assert(false, "sdsdf");

In the NDEBUG case, where assert is defined as:

#define assert(e)       ((void)0)

and

# define assert(expr)           (__ASSERT_VOID_CAST (0))

Regina, try adding some very obvious syntax error, some foo bar zap, after the assert(false, "Standard layer may not be deleted.");, to see if that line even is compiled.
