There are several checks in SObjectizer-5 that are implemented via static_assert construct. There are also some cases of illegal use of SObjectizer-5 that should lead to compilation errors. The problem is: how to ensure that they work properly?
Unfortunately, we haven't found a good way to make this kind of testing automatic and integrated into our CMake-based build process. Because of that these tests have to be performed manually.
This repository is a collection of test cases that have to be run and checked manually.
The SObjectizer-5 source code is included via Mxx_ru's mxxruexternals feature. It means that Ruby and Mxx_ru are required.
For example, on Ubuntu/Kubuntu:
sudo apt install Ruby
sudo gem install Mxx_rugit clone https://github.com/stiffstream/so5-wont-compile-tests
cd so5-wont-compile-tests
mxxruexternals
mkdir cmake_build
cd cmake_build
cmake ..A list of test cases has to be obtained. If make- or Ninja-generators are used
then CMake with --target help argument should be run:
cmake --build . --target helpIt may produce something like that:
$ cmake --build . --target help
The following are some of the valid targets for this Makefile:
... all (the default if no target is provided)
... clean
... depend
... edit_cache
... rebuild_cache
... message_limits.default_limit_then_transform
... message_limits.default_limit_then_transform_2
... message_limits.default_limit_then_transform_3
... message_limits.default_limit_then_transform_4
... message_limits.nonconst_ref_to_immutable_msg
... message_limits.nonconst_ref_to_immutable_msg_2
... mutable_msg.immutable_msg_as_argument
... mutable_msg.mutable_msg_as_argument
... mutable_msg.mutable_signal_send
... mutable_msg.mutable_signal_subscribe
... mutable_msg.mutable_signal_subscribe_lambda
... so_s.5.8.4
After that each test has to be run manually:
cmake --build . --target message_limits.default_limit_then_transform
cmake --build . --target message_limits.default_limit_then_transform_2
...
cmake --build . --target mutable_msg.mutable_signal_subscribe_lambda
