Please embed bogus test code in preprocessor conditionals

[jensseidel@…]

Hi,

I use the Eclipse IDE which marks all files with syntax errors such as boost/tools/regression/test/compile~fail.cpp

Since it is expected that this file causes errors it would be nice to embed the faulty code into a conditional such as BOOST_FAULT_TEST which isn't defined by default.

Also effected: compile-fail~pass.cpp run-fail~compile-fail.cpp

This way I would not have to always check these files.

The Eclipse CDT also allows you to exclude files and directories from the build. I think this is what you should do -- the file you mention, and the entire 'tools' directory, is probably not something you plan to do anything with.
