[can we configure this mail server to Reply to the group, not the individual? This lets us archive the technical discussions.]  From: Kyle Brost It seems as though you are doing a lot of work to embed PerlUnit into your development environment when you don't have to.  There is another project called CppUnit that would save you a lot of time and headache. Well, when I got here the shop was absolutely naive to Programmer Tests, but they correctly worship their "customer acceptance tests" on the server of their product. At the same time I'm too green here to just order everyone to comprehend CppUnit's myriad riddles. So, I downloaded CppUnit, copied their example.cpp into this project, and got it to compile >without< CppUnit or all the crud that package inexplicably drags along with it. (Legacy of Java legacy of Smalltalk, etc.) I plopped the result here - it's just one header file: http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?VisualCeePlusPlus It uses the filename(linenumber) -> OutputDebugString trick that lets you navigate thru errors or debug traces by tapping <F4> too. However, this site has a huge investment in Perl scripts to test their server, so I am bonding Perl with VC++ so I can then run all those scripts thru the GUI instead of the server. I want to see if I can run it until smoke rises from it. But first, their elaborate Perl scripts are screaming for a good refactor party first, so... -- Phlip
