source: orxonox.OLD/orxonox/trunk/src/lib/math/vector.cc @ 3908

Last change on this file since 3908 was 3860, checked in by bensch, 20 years ago

orxonox/trunk: moved likely to compiler.h in defs
also reset all the UNLIKELY_IF functions to how they should look.

the old approach is still valid, but depricated.

@patrick: i hope this is ok for you, for it is LINUX-standard.
and i think windows is also able to handle likely/unlikely because it is a compiler issue not a system issue
