unittest++

Post by tony.jay »

A brief update.
I have been unable to get a version of Codelite to work with Windows no matter what I tried.
To try and get some traction I then downloaded Codelite onto my MBP.
I had some success in the sense that I then had a basic functioning environment.

Now I have been trying to get unittest++ to work without success.
Ater a lot of searching I discovered that the unit test libraries were not even downloaded even though the plug-in sits large as life
apparently integrated into the IDE.
After putting the libraries in the include path for the compiler I am using it then recognised the include directives for unittest++ but the plugin itself does not work and any code written will not compile.

The wiki entry on unittest++ appears to be redundant since it is impossible to even set up a project in the manner outlined there.

I have spent a lot of hours trying to get clarity without success.
Clearly I don't know what I don't know.

Codelite 6.0
MBP running OS X 10.9.4
Unittest++ library downloaded is 1.4

/bin/sh -c 'make -j4 -e -f Makefile'

You don't link against the unitest++
Under ubuntu:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libunittest++-dev
In anycase, you need to link against libUnitTest++

Open: project settings->common settings->linker->Libraries
and add:

Code: Select all

UnitTest++
Note that you need to have at least one test set properly for it to work properly.
To add tests, simply open the unittests main file (usually named main.cpp)
right click it and select UnitTest++->create new test
