Re: [Boost-users] Boost.Test on Non Exported Dll Classes

AMDG Jon Black wrote:

I have a bunch of dll projects that make up an application. I'd like to unit test these projects, but I have two problems:

1) The classes I'd like to test are in the dll and not all of them are exported; 2) Boost.Test doesn't have a main entry point, so if I solve 1 by packing my tests in the dll, how can I run them?

If there is a better solution to 1, I'd love to hear it. Otherwise, how can I solve 2?

As long as you make sure that the dll is loaded before main, you can use the auto-registration mechanism. This works with msvc: // test.cpp (compiled into a dll) #include BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(test1) { BOOST_CHECK(true); } __declspec(dllexport) int f() {return 0;} // main.cpp #define BOOST_TEST_MAIN #include __declspec(dllimport) int f(); static const int i = f(); In Christ, Steven Watanabe
