Re: [boost] [BOOST_ASSERT] any one against improving debug support?

Thorsten Ottosen:

Hi,

The current difinition of BOOST_ASSERT is a pain to use with the debugger and Boost.Test because it doesn't trigger a break-point.

Does anyone object to defining it like this in <boost/assert.hpp>

#if (BOOST_MSVC >= 1400) #include <crtdbg.h> #define BOOST_ASSERT _ASSERTE #endif

I'm not sure I understand. BOOST_ASSERT is just assert by default, right? assert does trigger a breakpoint by default, right? Boost.Test intentionally disables the assert breakpoint by default so that it can fail the test case and not require human intervention, right? What am I missing?
