Hello, I am a newbie in the world of testing and using boost. I went through some of the previous discussion on this topic with no luck at trouble shooting my current issue. I am using visual c+ 2008 express edition, I tried installing boost using boostpro . I right click on project, and under c++ -> general -> additional dir; have added the following path. C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_47 Now, when I try to run boost example I get the following error , No matter what I do I just cannot get rid of this error any help is greatly appreciated . 1>------ Build started: Project: UnitTestPrac1, Configuration: Debug Win32 ----- - 1>Linking... 1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_unit_test_framework- vc90-mt-gd-1_47.lib' 1>Build log was saved at "file://c:\Users\amaster\Desktop\AVM_Documents\CppPractise\UnitTestPrac1\UnitTes tPrac1\Debug\BuildLog.htm" 1>UnitTestPrac1 - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s) ========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ========== // Following is my example #define BOOST_TEST_MODULE MyTest #include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp> BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(MyTestCase) { // To simplify this example test, let's suppose we'll test 'float'. // Some test are stupid, but all should pass. float x = 9.5f; BOOST_CHECK(x != 0.0f); BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL((int)x, 9); BOOST_CHECK_CLOSE(x, 9.5f, 0.0001f); // Checks differ no more then 0.0001% } Thank you in advance.
