+<h4>Compile-time assertions</h4>
+
+<p>A new macro has been added to epicsAssert.h which performs assertion checks
+at compile-time. <tt>STATIC_ASSERT(<i>expr</i>)</tt> can only be used when
+<tt><i>expr</i></tt> can be evaluated by the compiler, and will cause the
+compilation to fail if it evaluates to false. The resulting compiler error
+message might appear a little obscure, but it does provide some explanation and
+contains the line where the failure was discovered. Future versions of the C++
+standard will probably contain a similar facility <tt>static_assert(<i>expr</i>,
+<i>message</i>)</tt> but will require compiler support to be implemented.</p>

 <h4>Several changes made to dbDefs.h</h4>
 
 <p>The definitions for the macros <tt>YES</tt>, <tt>NO</tt>, <tt>NONE</tt>,
