| +// The C++ standard requires that static const members have an out-of-class | 
| +// definition (in a single compilation unit), but MSVC chokes on this (when | 
| +// language extensions, which are required, are enabled). (You're only likely to | 
| +// notice the need for a definition if you take the address of the member or, | 
| +// more commonly, pass it to a function that takes it as a reference argument -- | 
| +// probably an STL function.) This macro makes MSVC do the right thing. See | 
| +// http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/34h23df8(v=vs.100).aspx for more | 
| +// information. Use like: | 
| +// | 
| +// In .h file: | 
| +//   struct Foo { | 
| +//     static const int kBar = 5; | 
| +//   }; | 
| +// | 
| +// In .cc file: | 
| +//   STATIC_CONST_MEMBER_DEFINITION const int Foo::kBar; | 
| +#if V8_HAS_DECLSPEC_SELECTANY | 
| +#define STATIC_CONST_MEMBER_DEFINITION __declspec(selectany) |
