Hi,
The BOOST_TEST_MAIN is required and it is only defined in test.cpp
$ cat test.cpp #define BOOST_TEST_MAIN #include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>
I see what you mean. Is it problematic to define BOOST_TEST_MAIN more than once. I think that's reason I have it in test.cpp, only. When building all test you can run selected tests by given certain command line parameters. Of course, don't remember, right now, which one. ;-)
As I mentioned in my previous reply in this thread, it should not be an issue, because AFAIK GCC, since 3.4.x, does support [1] compilation of such definitions of constants. However, I suppose you may be suffering of address-of-constant issue [2] which I also confirmed in my previous reply.

I'm not using the address just the value. Regards, Christian
