-// The following implements the BitUnion system of defining bitfields

-//Since they're unioned with each other, all of these storage locations
-//overlap. This allows all of the bitfields to manipulate the same data
-//without having to have access to each other. More details are provided with the

-//This macro is a backend for other macros that specialize it slightly.

-//BitfieldOperators above inherits from. Putting these classes in a special
-//namespace ensures that there will be no collisions with other names as long
-//as the BitUnion names themselves are all distinct and nothing else uses
-//the BitfieldUnderlyingClasses namespace, which is unlikely. The class itself
-//creates a typedef of the "type" parameter called __DataType. This allows
-//the type to propagate outside of the macro itself in a controlled way.
-//Finally, the base storage is defined which BitfieldOperators will refer to
-//in the operators it defines. This macro is intended to be followed by
-//bitfield definitions which will end up inside it's union. As explained
