Somewhere in the E.U., le 05/03/2003 Bonjour I suspect that what you need is to allow the messages to appear in the console, which can be brought about by typing the following before the creation of the test_unit (that's the way I mage it work for me, at least): ::boost::unit_test_framework::unit_test_log::instance().set_log_threshold _level_by_name("messages"); Bon courage Hubert Holin In article <b3qv7c+qfks@eGroups.com>, "paul_snively <paul_snively@yahoo.com>" <paul_snively@yahoo.com> wrote:

Folks,

I'd like to be able to run a boost unit test, e.g. is_convertible_test.cpp, as kind of a one-shot apart from having to deal with the rest of boost. So I read the documentation on the unit test framework, and it seems like this should be relatively straightforward. I've created a Carbon Console project in Codewarrior, which contains the following files:

is_convertible_test.cpp init.cpp (from type_traits/test) unit_test_main.cpp unit_test_suite.cpp unit_test_result.cpp unit_test_log.cpp unit_test_monitor.cpp execution_monitor.cpp unit_test_parameters.cpp test_tools.cpp

This all compiles and links file, which is a relief in and of itself. :-)

However, when I simply run the app, I get "*** No errors detected". If I remove is_convertible_test.cpp and rebuild and run again, I get the same result. :-) So my suspicion is that I need to do more to let the framework know that it needs to run is_convertible_test.cpp. Can someone please clue me in as to what that is, in minimal terms?

Thanks!

No you've got it right - it's just that the unit test lib doesn't report much by default - if you look at the jamfile you will see that it uses the following command line args: --report_level=detailed --build_info=yes --log_level=messages you can do all this with bjam BTW, with: bjam is_convertible_test.test Hope this helps, John.
