+// File:
+//   This file define a macro that allows the creation of or emulation of C++17
+//   inline variables based on whether or not the feature is supported.
+
+////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
+// Macro: ABSL_INTERNAL_INLINE_CONSTEXPR(type, name, init)
+//
+// Description:
+//   Expands to the equivalent of an inline constexpr instance of the specified
+//   `type` and `name`, initialized to the value `init`. If the compiler being
+//   used is detected as supporting actual inline variables as a language
+//   feature, then the macro expands to an actual inline variable definition.
+//
+// Requires:
+//   `type` is a type that is usable in an extern variable declaration.
+//
+// Requires: `name` is a valid identifier
+//
+// Requires:
+//   `init` is an expression that can be used in the following definition:
+//     constexpr type name = init;
+//
+// Usage:
+//
+//   // Equivalent to: `inline constexpr size_t variant_npos = -1;`
+//   ABSL_INTERNAL_INLINE_CONSTEXPR(size_t, variant_npos, -1);
+//
+// Differences in implementation:
+//   For a direct, language-level inline variable, decltype(name) will be the
+//   type that was specified along with const qualification, whereas for
+//   emulated inline variables, decltype(name) may be different (in practice
+//   it will likely be a reference type).

+#ifdef __cpp_inline_variables
+
+// Clang's -Wmissing-variable-declarations option erroneously warned that
+// inline constexpr objects need to be pre-declared. This has now been fixed,
+// but we will need to support this workaround for people building with older
+// versions of clang.
+//
+// Bug: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35862

+//   identity_t is used here so that the const and name are in the
