Expand description

Selects code at compile-time based on `cfg` predicates.

This macro evaluates, at compile-time, a series of `cfg` predicates, selects the first that is true, and emits the code guarded by that predicate. The code guarded by other predicates is not emitted.

An optional trailing `_` wildcard can be used to specify a fallback. If none of the predicates are true, a `compile_error` is emitted.

## §Example

    #![feature(cfg_select)]

    cfg_select! {
        unix => {
            fn foo() { /* unix specific functionality */ }
        }
        target_pointer_width = "32" => {
            fn foo() { /* non-unix, 32-bit functionality */ }
        }
        _ => {
            fn foo() { /* fallback implementation */ }
        }
    }

The `cfg_select!` macro can also be used in expression position, with or without braces on the right-hand side:

    #![feature(cfg_select)]

    let _some_string = cfg_select! {
        unix => "With great power comes great electricity bills",
        _ => { "Behind every successful diet is an unwatched pizza" }
    };
