    Hi all, I'm currently working on a MFC Project and want to use the MfcUi::TestRunner with Unicode support enabled (Flag:'_UNICODE' defined). I compiled the CppUnit 1.8.0 MSVC6 'TestRunner' project with the 'Win32 Release Unicode' configuration from the source, which generated testrunneru.xxx. Further I also compiled the 'cppunit' MSVC6 project with the 'Win32 Release' configuration from the source, which generated cppunit.lib. I placed these files into the corresponding location.

    My application is a simple MFC dialog-based app. where I try to start the mfc TestRunner in the InitInstance()-function.

    - I enabled RTTI-Support, _UNICODE
    - I set Link-Output-Entry point symbol = 'wWinMainCRTStartup'

    Now compilation passes fine. But at linking I get the following warning:
    LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib "MSVCRT" conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library

    An Exe-file is generated, but if I start the application a do get an Access Violation in MFC42U.DLL when the runner.run() function is called.

    Does somebody have any suggestions?

    Thx in advance, Willai

      Aha, something more:
      I set the Link - Output - Entry point symbol attribute to 'wWinMainCRTStartup' because Unicode MFC Applications uses wWinMainCRTStartup as the entry point. Otherwise u get this Link-Error:

      MSVC6:
      msvcrt.lib(crtexew.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "_WinMain@16"
      Visual C++ .NET:
      error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16 referenced in function _WinMainCRTStartup
      fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

        That's exactly what I did too, but it's not the solution of the problem. It seems that the <cppunit> includes don't support unicode (there are no _UNICODE Preprocessor-checks if u search the sources). Unfortunately, nobody of this project feels to be addressed by this problem :-|

      I just check the HostApp example in the unicode configuration and its works fine.

      CppUnit does not handle unicode in any specific way (this was discussed a few year ago on the ML), only the mfc testrunner need to do so because its linking against a different MFC library.

      Concerning you crash issue, have you checked that you are using the same version of CRT dll as cppunit ?
