1.1) Isn't there an easier way to write unit tests than using TestCaller ?
|

Yes, there is. Macros have been created to take care of the repetitive
|
|
Packit |
8c9aa0 |
work. Look up include/extensions/HelperMacros.h in CppUnit documentation.
|
|

Most of CppUnit test suite is also written that way since they remain
|
|
Packit |
8c9aa0 |
compatible as CppUnit evolve.

2.1) Why does the compiler report an error when linking with CppUnit library?
|
|

You most likely are not using the same C-RunTime library as CppUnit.
|
|
Packit |

In Release configuration, CppUnit use "Mulithreaded DLL".
|
|
Packit |
8c9aa0 |
In Debug configurations, CppUnit use "Debug Multihreaded DLL".
|
|

Check that Projects/Settings.../C++/Code Generation is indeed using
|
|
Packit |
8c9aa0 |
the correct library.

2.2) Why does CppUnit generate warning 4786:... when compiling ?
|
|

|

I really don't have a clue. All CppUnit's headers starts by either
|
|
Packit |
8c9aa0 |
including Portability.h or another CppUnit's header. Portability.h includes
|
|
Packit |
8c9aa0 |
config-msvc6.h which disable that specific warning. The warning is generated
|
|
Packit |

by TestFactoryRegistry::m_factories. A solution to this problem is welcome.
