21     Assert implementation override for ASCEND unit tests.
22    
23     These functions override the default assert implementation to
24     allow recovery from failed asserts during testing. When using
25     this implementation, a failed assertion sets a global variable
26     (g_assert_status) and issues a longjmp() out of the function.
27    
28     For example (in test function):
29     <pre>
30     g_assert_status = ast_passed;
31     if (0 == setjmp(g_asc_test_env))
32     call_function_containing_assertion();
33    
34     if (ast_passed == g_assert_status)
35     ==> no assertions failed <==
36     else
37     ==> assertion failed <== </pre>
38    
39     If you desire that assert() reverts to standard behavior
40     (issue a message on stderr and abort the program), call
41     enable_longjump(FALSE).
42    
43     Support is also provided for trapping asc_assert() failures.
44     This mechanism works by using a callback from Asc_Panic to
45     issue a longjmp back to test code for asc_assert() failures.
46     Test code should enable trapping of asc_assert, then use
47     the global jmp_buf g_asc_test_env and setjmp() to wrap the
48     code being tested. Functions are provided to check the whether
49     an asc_assert() failure has occurred and reset the status.
50    
51     For example (in test function):
52     <pre>
53     asc_assert_catch(TRUE); (* enable trapping of asc_assert() *)
54     asc_assert_reset(); (* prepare for a test *)
55     if (0 == setjmp(g_asc_test_env)) (* setjmp using global jmpbuf & call suspect function *)
56     call_function_containing_assertion();
57    
58     if (TRUE == asc_assert_failed()) (* test whether assertion failed *)
59     ==> no assertions failed <==
60     else
61     ==> assertion failed <==
62     asc_assert_catch(FALSE); (* disable trapping of asc_assert() when done *)
63     </pre>
