yeah thanks it works.. BOOST_CHECK_CLOSE( MyAnn::getProbAND(std::string("+cancer"), std::string("+test"), vps), (1.0/2.0), 0.001) succedded. On 5/17/07, Gennadiy Rozental wrote:

It seems that you are tryingto check floating point values for equality. It's never a good idea. Try to switch to the UTF and use BOOST_CHECK_CLOSE.

To switch you need to change

#include

int test_main(...)\ { ... }

to

#include

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE( test_main ) { ... }

Let me knwo if you still have any problems.

Heres the code. if ((2.0/3.0) != MyAnn::getCondProb(std::string("+cancer"), std::string("+test"), vps)); BOOST_ERROR("getCondProb"); if((1.0/2.0) != MyAnn::getProb(std::string("+cancer"), vps, 1)); BOOST_ERROR("getProb"); if((3.0/4.0) != MyAnn::getProb(std::string("+test"), vps, 2)); BOOST_ERROR("getProb"); if((1.0/2.0) != MyAnn::getProbAND(std::string("+cancer"), std::string("+test"), vps)); BOOST_ERROR("getCondProbAND"); if((3.0/4.0) != MyAnn::getProbOR(std::string("+cancer"), std::string("+test"), vps)); BOOST_ERROR("getCondProbOR"); BOOST_CHECK(( 2.0/3.0) == MyAnn::getCondProb(std::string("+cancer"), std::string("+test"), vps)); BOOST_CHECK((1.0/2.0) == MyAnn::getProb(std::string("+cancer"), vps, 1)); BOOST_CHECK((3.0/4.0) == MyAnn::getProb(std::string("+test"), vps, 2)); BOOST_CHECK((1.0/2.0) == MyAnn::getProbAND(std::string("+cancer"), std::string("+test"), vps)); BOOST_CHECK((3.0/4.0) == MyAnn::getProbOR(std::string("+cancer"), std::string("+test"), vps));

I like to know what went wrong .. and how come its failing? its using boost 1.34
