// The following includes of STL headers have to be done _before_ the
// definition of macros min() and max(). The reason is that many STL
// implementations will not work properly as the min and max symbols collide
// with the STL functions std:min() and std::max(). The STL headers may check
// for the macro definition of min/max and issue a warning or undefine the
// macros.
//
// Still, Windows defines min() and max() in windef.h as part of the regular
// Windows system interfaces and many other Windows APIs depend on these
// macros being available. To prevent the macro expansion of min/max and to
// make Eigen compatible with the Windows environment all function calls of
// std::min() and std::max() have to be written with parenthesis around the
// function name.
//
// All STL headers used by Eigen should be included here. Because main.h is
// included before any Eigen header and because the STL headers are guarded
// against multiple inclusions, no STL header will see our own min/max macro
// definitions.

// To test that all calls from Eigen code to std::min() and std::max() are
// protected by parenthesis against macro expansion, the min()/max() macros
// are defined here and any not-parenthesized min/max call will cause a
// compiler error.
