A diagnostic message is written to .Dv stderr and the function .Xr abort 3 is called, effectively terminating the program. .Pp If .Ar expression is true, the .Fn assert macro does nothing. .Pp The .Fn assert macro may be removed at compile time by defining .Dv NDEBUG as a macro (e.g., by using the .Xr cc 1 option .Fl D Ns Dv NDEBUG ) . .Sh EXAMPLES The assertion: .Pp .Dl "assert(1 == 0);" .Pp generates a diagnostic message similar to the following: .Pp .Dl "Assertion failed: (1 == 0), function main, file assertion.c, line 100." .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr abort 3 .Sh STANDARDS The .Fn assert macro conforms to .St -isoC-99 . .Sh HISTORY An .Nm macro appeared in -.At v6 . +.At v7 .
