Static assertion is a valuable diagnostic tool for finding and eliminating software defects that may result in vulnerabilities at compile time. The absence of static assertions, however, does not mean that code is incorrect.
This assumes ROSE can recognize macro invocation.

Automated Detection
Compass/ROSE could detect violations of this rule merely by looking for calls to assert(), and if it can evaluate the assertion (due to all values being known at compile time), then the code should use static-assert instead.This assumes ROSE can recognize macro invocation.
