[Cppunit-devel] assertEquals and internal compiler error...

[Baptiste L. <bl...@cl...>]

Well, I finally got around that problem.

As I said in a previous mail, cppunittest example failed to compile with
the new assertEquals template member methods (got a nice compiler internal
error) on VC++ 6.0 (no service pack).

I changed TestAssert from class to namespace, and removed the TestAssert
from TestCase inheritance. It compile well and works just fine.

Does anyone see any problems with that ?

Known impact is:

for users of cppunit 1.5.5, if they don't enable NAKED_ASSERT, with TestCase
inheritance of TestAssert, they won't get any compile time error.
All the assert would work but no line number and source file would be
reported.

This is not really a problem for me since I consider it to be a rather
dangerous
behavior: the user should either enabled NAKED_ASSERT or use the new macros.

Baptiste.
