I am having problems compiling using the included form of the test execution monitor library. I have not tried building the library seperately and linking. The following test illustrates the problem: #include "boost/test/included/test_exec_monitor.hpp" int test_main(int argc, char *argv[]) { BOOST_CHECK("TEST ME"); } /* When used with boost 1.30.2 Building Makefile: "C:\Dev-Cpp\Local\sql\Mingw32\Makefile.win" Executing make... make.exe -f "C:\Dev-Cpp\Local\sql\Mingw32\Makefile.win" all g++.exe -c ../src/test_main.cpp -o ../src/test_main.o -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/mingw32" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/backward" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/Local/boost-1.30.2" <<<<< The only change is here. -fexceptions -fmessage-length=0 g++.exe ../src/test_main.o -o "Sql.exe" -L"C:/Dev-Cpp/lib" ../../../lib/libodbc32.a Execution terminated Compilation successful Output: Platform: Win32 Compiler: GNU C++ version 3.2 (mingw special 20020817-1) STL : GNU libstdc++ version 20020816 Boost : 1.30.2 Entering test case "call_test_main" ../src/test_main.cpp(5): info: test "TEST ME" passed C:/Dev-Cpp/Local/boost-1.30.2/libs/test/src/test_main.cpp(40): error in "call_test_main": test test_main_result == 0 || test_main_result == boost::exit_success failed Leaving test case "call_test_main" Test case "call_test_main" failed with: 1 assertion out of 2 passed 1 assertion out of 2 failed When compiling with 1.31.0 Compiler: Default compiler Building Makefile: "C:\Dev-Cpp\Local\sql\Mingw32\Makefile.win" Executing make... make.exe -f "C:\Dev-Cpp\Local\sql\Mingw32\Makefile.win" all g++.exe -c ../src/test_main.cpp -o ../src/test_main.o -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/mingw32" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/backward" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/include" -I"C:/Dev-Cpp/Local/boost_1_31_0" <<< The only change is here !!!!! -fexceptions -fmessage-length=0 In file included from C:/Dev-Cpp/include/boost/test/included/test_exec_monitor.hpp:20, from ../src/test_main.cpp:1: C:/Dev-Cpp/Local/boost_1_31_0/libs/test/src/execution_monitor.cpp:185: no `int boost::execution_monitor::run_function()' member function declared in class `boost::execution_monitor' C:/Dev-Cpp/Local/boost_1_31_0/libs/test/src/execution_monitor.cpp: In member function `int boost::execution_monitor::run_function()': C:/Dev-Cpp/Local/boost_1_31_0/libs/test/src/execution_monitor.cpp:186: `m_custom_translators' undeclared (first use this function) C:/Dev-Cpp/Local/boost_1_31_0/libs/test/src/execution_monitor.cpp:186: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.) ....

Maybe i am just missing something simple. Guess I will try building and linking it to see what happens. -- Shawn Church sl_church@sbcglobal.net
