/** \def BOOST_VMD_IS_EMPTY(...)
    \brief Tests whether its input is empty or not.
    The macro checks to see if the input is empty or not.
    It returns 1 if the input is empty, else returns 0.
    
    The macro is a variadic macro taking any input.
    For the VC++8 compiler (VS2005) the macro takes a single parameter of input to check.
    
    The macro is not perfect, and can not be so. The problem
    area is if the input to be checked is a function-like
    macro name, in which case either a compiler error can result
    or a false result can occur.
    
    This macro is a replacement, using variadic macro support,
    for the undocumented macro BOOST_PP_IS_EMPTY in the Boost
    PP library. The code is taken from a posting by Paul Mensonides
    of a variadic version for BOOST_PP_IS_EMPTY, and changed 
    in order to also support VC++.
    
    .... = variadic input, for VC++8 this must be a single parameter
    returns = 1 if the input is empty, 0 if it is not
    
    It is recommended to append BOOST_PP_EMPTY() to whatever input
    is being tested in order to avoid possible warning messages 
    from some compilers about no parameters being passed to the macro
    when the input is truly empty.
