/// \def BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE
/// BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE is used by boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index class to
/// deduce the name of a type. If your compiler is not recognized
/// by the TypeIndex library and you wish to work with boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index, you may
/// define this macro by yourself.
///
/// BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE must be defined to a compiler specific macro
/// that outputs the \b whole function signature \b including \b template \b parameters.
///
/// If your compiler is not recognised and BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE is not defined,
/// then a compile-time error will arise at any attempt to use boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index classes.
///
/// See BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_REGISTER_CTTI_PARSING_PARAMS and BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING
/// for an information of how to tune the implementation to make a nice pretty_name() output.

/// \def BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING
/// This is a helper macro for making correct pretty_names() with RTTI off.
///
/// BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING macro may be defined to
/// '(begin_skip, end_skip, runtime_skip, runtime_skip_until)' with parameters for adding a
/// support for compilers, that by default are not recognized by TypeIndex library.
///
/// \b Example:
///
/// Imagine the situation when
/// \code boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<int>().pretty_name() \endcode
/// returns the following string:
/// \code "static const char *boost::detail::ctti<int>::n() [T = int]" \endcode
/// and \code boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<short>().pretty_name() \endcode returns the following:
/// \code "static const char *boost::detail::ctti<short>::n() [T = short]" \endcode
///
/// As we may see first 39 characters are "static const char *boost::detail::ctti<" and they do not depend on
/// the type T. After first 39 characters we have a human readable type name which is duplicated at the end
/// of a string. String always ends on ']', which consumes 1 character.
///
/// Now if we define `BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING` to
/// `(39, 1, false, "")` we'll be getting \code "int>::n() [T = int" \endcode
/// for `boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<int>().pretty_name()` and \code "short>::n() [T = short" \endcode
/// for `boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<short>().pretty_name()`.
///
/// Now we need to take additional care of the characters that go before the last mention of our type. We'll
/// do that by telling the macro that we need to cut off everything that goes before the "T = " including the "T = "
/// itself:
///
/// \code (39, 1, true, "T = ") \endcode
///
/// In case of GCC or Clang command line we need to add the following line while compiling all the sources:
///
/// \code
/// -DBOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING='(39, 1, true, "T = ")'
/// \endcode
/// \param begin_skip How many characters must be skipped at the beginning of the type holding string.
/// Must be a compile time constant.
/// \param end_skip How many characters must be skipped at the end of the type holding string.
/// Must be a compile time constant.
/// \param runtime_skip Do we need additional checks at runtime to cut off the more characters.
/// Must be `true` or `false`.
/// \param runtime_skip_until Skip all the characters before the following string (including the string itself).
/// Must be a compile time array of characters.
///
