	Hi,

in the first version of cppunit, IIRC, one could write something like that :

CPPUNIT_ASSERT_EQUALS( a, 2 )

and get an error message like 

" 'a' was expected to be 2 but was actually 3"

Now the error message is more along 

" expected: 2
  but was: 3
"

There is a loss of information, the name of what was being tested. And I like 
to have it back.

Was it removed because getting a string for this argument was dependant on a 
macro trick ?

	regards,

	Philippe
