Hi, I've built and run this with libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-gd-1_33_1.lib in my Linker->Input->Additional Dependencies. The single test looks like this: void free_test_function() { // reports 'error in "free_test_function": test 2 == 1 failed' BOOST_CHECK(2 == 1); // non-critical test => continue after failure int* p = (int*)0; *p = 0; } When I run it, I see the falied message (2!=1), but I don't get the final 'No errors found' message since '*p=0' causes an unhandlled exception. But when I run it with #include and no library instead, it runs to completion as expected. Any idea what I'm doing wrong. thanks in advance, John McMahon

How did you build the library? It looks like async exceptions were not enabled during library build. Gennadiy "John McMahon" wrote in message news:f156ao$rp6$1@sea.gmane.org...

Yes. This version is not correct. The issue is addressed in 1.34.0 AFAIK. Switch to 1.34 (preferable). Or build the library yourself from the Boost.Test sources. Gennadiy

built a new libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-gd-1_33_1.lib and just now prepended my vc80 lib search path to point to the folder I did the 1.33.1 libirary build. It gave the same error at the same point. Also, http://www.boost-consulting.com/products/free/beta contains the line: "Nothing here yet. We expect to have a beta version of the Boost 1.34 installer soon" thanks "Gennadiy Rozental" wrote in message news:f1592e$5v5$1@sea.gmane.org...

The error was in tools if I am not mistaken. You need to make sure manually that async exceptions flag is turned on (/Ga?)

Would it be this?: "Use /EHa to specify the asynchronous exception handling model (C++ exception handling with structured exception handling exceptions). /EHa may result in a less performant image because the compiler will not optimize a catch block as aggressively, even if the compiler does not see a throw. /GX is deprecated in Visual C++ 2005; use /EH (Exception Handling Model) instead.

Ask Boost.Build guys.

Hi Grennadiy, thanks for your help so far. I might just switch to the no libraries solution and wait for 1.34 binaries to be built, since I don't have time on my schedule to dig deeper into the boost build. Correct me if I'm wrong - if I chose to use the synchronous exceptions version of the libraries now on Boost Consulting website, the core libraries ought to work fine, it is just that I ought to expect runtime exceptions to terminate the execution of any code I write using it. Ie please confirm that there's no reason to think that boost-test, etc might not function with this exception model. Just on the no-libraries solution. I can't find anything documented about any special compiler settings to get it to work with vc80. When I set /EHsc, the popped up exception occurs. When I set /EHa, the program _appears_ to finish fine, but on closer inspection of the console output, I discover the access violation message is there in the console. But I guess this is not what I should get with my no-libraries test. What am I doing wrong here? -- OUTPUT: $ ./Boost_test_1_withoutSeparateLibrary.exe Running 1 test case... d:/john/syncfolder/projects/programming/c++/vc++/projects/boost_test_1/boost_test_1/getstarted.cpp(13): error in "free_te st_function": check 3 == 1 failed unknown location(0): fatal error in "free_test_function": memory access violation *** 1 failure detected (1 failure expected) in test suite "Unit test example 1" --- #include using boost::unit_test::test_suite; void free_test_function(){ BOOST_CHECK(3 == 1); int* p = (int*)0; *p = 0;} test_suite* init_unit_test_suite( int, char* [] ) { test_suite* test= BOOST_TEST_SUITE( "Unit test example 1" ); test->add( BOOST_TEST_CASE( &free_test_function ), 1 /* expected one error */ ); return test;}

Boost.Test won;t be able to catch system errors, like memory access violation

Just on the no-libraries solution. I can't find anything documented about any special compiler settings to get it to work with vc80.

VC 8.0 was not available at the time

...

When I set /EHsc, the popped up exception occurs. When I set /EHa, the program _appears_ to finish fine, but on closer inspection of the console output, I discover the access violation message is there in the console. But I guess this is not what I should get with my no-libraries test. What am I doing wrong here?

I don't see anything wrong with an output below. Memory access violation is caught and reported by the UTF.
