I'll try this out as soon as possible. Meanwhile it works with /FORCE. By The Way, before we get too far into doc updates, is there a really good reason why unit test framework and test tools are separate libraries? They appear to be the same apart from one extra file. Would it not reduce confusion/compile time... to just have ONE library file. I'm still not sure I understand when to use either a test_suite unit_unit_test_suite, or int test_main.
