I guess you should see how Boost.Build could support this.

Best, Vicente

Right. That's kind of what I'm asking. Does Boost.Build support this already? Is there a way to hook into 'run'? I don't find Boost.Build (or docs) easy to use/understand, so my poking around at it didn't find anything, but I could have easily missed it. Tony

That is along the right track. But I don't want to have to do that for every boost test file. This isn't for my own tests, I want to run the boost tests. I sort of need a global launcher that I can hook into. On Thu, Nov 22, 2012 at 1:40 PM, Paulo Márcio Figueiredo Alves < pauloalves1986@gmail.com> wrote:

You could use testing.launcher, like this: b2 testing.launcher=my_custom_launcher It'll call my_custom_launcher to run your tests.

Ah, awesome. Thanks. I didn't realize you could pass that on the command line. Makes sense of course. I'm just not comfortable with boost build yet.

Well, that is exactly the purpose of "testing.launcher". I use this to start valgrind on all my test cases. Jamfile syntax is: "valgrind --leak-check=full --leak-resolution=high --track-origins=yes --error-exitcode=1 --gen-suppressions=all" and that would be on commandline: b2 testing.launcher="valgrind --leak-check=full ..." This will start all tests with valgrind. Handy for catching memory leaks, uninitialised variables and all the other things valgrind can detect. You really only need to write a wrapper script which does the necessary setup and stuff and use this as launcher skript Yours, Jürgen -- * Dipl.-Math. Jürgen Hunold ! * voice: ++49 4257 300 !
