Frequently Asked Questions:

1) Questions relating to CppUnit

   ----------------------------

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 

work. Look up include/extensions/HelperMacros.h in CppUnit documentation. 

Most of CppUnit test suite is also written that way since they remain 

compatible as CppUnit evolve.

2) Questions related to Microsoft Visual VC++

   -----------------------------------------

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.

   In Release configuration, CppUnit use "Mulithreaded DLL".

   In Debug configurations, CppUnit use "Debug Multihreaded DLL".

   Check that Projects/Settings.../C++/Code Generation is indeed using

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

including Portability.h or another CppUnit's header. Portability.h includes

config-msvc6.h which disable that specific warning. The warning is generated

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