Re: [Cppunit-devel] Most user-friendly version of CppUnit

[Noel Y. <Noe...@mo...>]

The macros certainly go a long way in making CppUnit a bit more user friendly.

Personally, I don't like the macros since:
- IIRC, they get in the way of emacs fontification and indentation
- they don't conform to our coding standards
- I just don't like using macros for code generation purposes, there are better tools out there for this
