Re: ANN: fructose 0.6.0 released
* Andrew Marlow:
This is to announce the LGPL'd release of FRUCTOSE, a C++ unit test
framework. It is very cutdown compared to CppUnit and is designed for
simple command line-driven test harnesses. It is implemented entirely in
header files. Try it out at http://fructose.sourceforge.net
I have released another version, 0.6.0 and promoted the status from alpha
to beta. There are two changes; firstly, John Appleby-Alis spotted a bug
in the loop assert macros such that it would not work properly when
reverse mode was used. This is now fixed. Secondly, I have provided
uppercase versions of the macros as well as lowercase. Some people felt
quite strongly that the macros should be uppercase so in order to please
both camps I have made both flavours available.
The intent of uppercase for macro names is to avoid name collisions
(macros don't respect scopes).
If the lowercase versions are available anyway, not turned off by some
preprocessor symbol, then what you've done is to /increase/ the chance
of a name collision.
Which, if it is so, is surely not what "some people" wanted...
