The easiest way to do it is to have compiled boost libraries. This means that you have run the bjam install procedure instead of just copying the header files over to /usr/include/boost. With the libs installed, you will need to put -lboost_unit_test_framework on your boost link line.
The easiest way is indeed to use a bjam.
Just make bjam in boost/buils/src directory. Then run bjam -sTOOLS=gcc <example-name>
This command will build both the library (put it in proper place) and an example.
You should now be OK, except for the fact that you might find your test output a little disconcerting. I was expecting something like PERL's test module output
Why? In C++ we should expect something similal to what C++ compilers produce.
but instead got something which looks like it was generated by g++'s compile error generator. On
Yes. And VC++. But if you prefer different output format you could easily enough generate almost any desirable one.
Well, I had a look at your docs & came away with unresolved questions regarding how to set differing output formats. The one method I found was to set the log_level to none (which cuts out too much info) didn't seem too appealing. What I was looking for was a way to print out the progress messages (completing test xxx: succeeded/failed) and the message with exceptions on it (just the one line), but nothing more. I guess the question I have regarding formatting is, how do you create a format & then tie it in to a test suite? If you can get me pointed in the right direction I might be able to come up with something.
