+/// \def BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE
+/// BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE is used by boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index class to
+/// deduce the name of a type. If your compiler is not recognized
+/// by the TypeIndex library and you wish to work with boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index, you may
+/// define this macro by yourself.
+///
+/// BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE must be defined to a compiler specific macro
+/// that outputs the \b whole function signature \b including \b template \b parameters.
+///
+/// If your compiler is not recognised and BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE is not defined,
+/// then a compile-time error will arise at any attempt to use boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index classes.
+///
+/// See BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_REGISTER_CTTI_PARSING_PARAMS and BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING
+/// for an information of how to tune the implementation to make a nice pretty_name() output.
+#define BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_FUNCTION_SIGNATURE BOOST_CURRENT_FUNCTION
+
+/// \def BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING
+/// This is a helper macro for making correct pretty_names() with RTTI off.
+///
+/// BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING macro may be defined to
+/// '(begin_skip, end_skip, runtime_skip, runtime_skip_until)' with parameters for adding a
+/// support for compilers, that by default are not recognized by TypeIndex library.
+///
+/// \b Example:
+///
+/// Imagine the situation when
+/// \code boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<int>().pretty_name() \endcode
+/// returns the following string:
+/// \code "static const char *boost::detail::ctti<int>::n() [T = int]" \endcode
+/// and \code boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<short>().pretty_name() \endcode returns the following:
+/// \code "static const char *boost::detail::ctti<short>::n() [T = short]" \endcode
+///
+/// As we may see first 39 characters are "static const char *boost::detail::ctti<" and they do not depend on
+/// the type T. After first 39 characters we have a human readable type name which is duplicated at the end
+/// of a string. String always ends on ']', which consumes 1 character.
+///
+/// Now if we define `BOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING` to
+/// `(39, 1, false, "")` we'll be getting \code "int>::n() [T = int" \endcode
+/// for `boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<int>().pretty_name()` and \code "short>::n() [T = short" \endcode
+/// for `boost::typeindex::ctti_type_index::type_id<short>().pretty_name()`.
+///
+/// Now we need to take additional care of the characters that go before the last mention of our type. We'll
+/// do that by telling the macro that we need to cut off everything that goes before the "T = " including the "T = "
+/// itself:
+///
+/// \code (39, 1, true, "T = ") \endcode
+///
+/// In case of GCC or Clang command line we need to add the following line while compiling all the sources:
+///
+/// \code
+/// -DBOOST_TYPE_INDEX_CTTI_USER_DEFINED_PARSING='(39, 1, true, "T = ")'
+/// \endcode
+/// \param begin_skip How many characters must be skipped at the beginning of the type holding string.
+/// Must be a compile time constant.
+/// \param end_skip How many characters must be skipped at the end of the type holding string.
+/// Must be a compile time constant.
+/// \param runtime_skip Do we need additional checks at runtime to cut off the more characters.
+/// Must be `true` or `false`.
+/// \param runtime_skip_until Skip all the characters before the following string (including the string itself).
+/// Must be a compile time array of characters.
+///
