Hi All!

Can the boost::test used without the library-provided main()?

Rationale: - the application does not have main() but WinMain() - it is built on top of MFC so even the WinMain() is already supplied by the framework - I would like to control the execution of unit tests myself, e.g. include a menu item "Run unit tests now"

Can anyone help me? Hannu Helminen Finland

Let's consider unit test framework for example: 1. Create library from sources without including unit_test_main.cpp 2. Copy functionality of unit_test_main.cpp ( in full or partially) in whatever place you prefer 3. Enjoy Gennadiy. P.S. It may be interesting to create windows-based library that would link with user code and would allow: a) Run tests b) See results in some format I have it in my to do list. Recently I implemented XML based output. So it should be easier to interpret and present output to the user.
