[Please do not mail me a copy of your followup] boost-users@lists.boost.org spake the secret code <kkfsap$lo7$1@ger.gmane.org> thusly:
[...] I would instead recommend using another mock object library in conjunction with Boost.Test such as googlemock or Turtle.
I have since looked into this and I would recommend Turtle. <http://turtle.sourceforge.net> It has a simple, clean and easy syntax with very little boilerplate that you need to write in order to "callables" (objects providing an implementation of operator(), function pointers, std::function, etc.), mock interfaces and template arguments. (The author and I are discussing ways to make mocking template arguments, also known as Concepts, easier.) Unfortunately googlemock now requires the use of googletest as a link dependency. When I tried MockCpp, it required too much repetitive boiler plate for my tastes. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://computergraphicsmuseum.org> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals.classiccmp.org> Legalize Adulthood!
