Hi,

trying to follow your examples on the website I was confused and disillusioned
by the bad sourcecode you provide.

I understand that your page wants to explain the concepts, but it basically
lacks one thing; producing a compiling file that I can actually run...


Ok, lets start my argument again; and let me get to the problem in a bit.
I want to try cppunit. So the first thing I do is I find out about the assertions
you provide and then I want to get a really simple test running and compiling.
This part is essential and if this does not work I want to spend 0 time trying
to figure out other ideas like suite etc.

The page I found provided a number of sourecode samples but none had a full
listing that actually compiled.
And reaching the end I found a main method, but that uses a lot of concepts I
never heard of; but I can't understand the concepts without seeing a running
example of a test.


Confused? So was I, the problem with your pages is that I can only understand
then when I know what it is you explain.

Please provide for _EACH_ example code a single file that contains the whole
test; including main and everything.
Preferrably with an example gcc (or similar) call at the top.
It is sooo much easier to understand what you are saying when I have the option
to see it in the context of the whole...
If I can just get one file to actually compile I might start using cppunit!

Many thanx!

ps. a page describing the differences between junit and cppunit would also be
great.
