| | 2 | |
| | 3 | The `boost_test_compile` macro creates a Boost regression test that will be compiled, |
| | 4 | but not linked or executed. If the test can be compiled with no |
| | 5 | errors, the test passes. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | {{{ |
| | 8 | boost_test_compile(testname |
| | 9 | [source1] |
| | 10 | [COMPILE_FLAGS compileflags]) |
| | 11 | }}} |
| | 12 | |
| | 13 | `testname` is the name of the test. `source1` is the name of the source |
| | 14 | file that will be built. If no source file is provided, the file |
| | 15 | "testname.cpp" will be used instead. |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | The `COMPILE_FLAGS` argument provides additional arguments that will |
| | 18 | be passed to the compiler when building this test. |
| | 19 | |
| | 20 | == Example == |
| | 21 | The following invocation of the `boost_test_compile` macro defines a regression test named `advance` that attempts to compile `advance.cpp`. If compilation succeeds, the regression test passes. |
| | 22 | |
| | 23 | {{{ |
| | 24 | boost_test_compile(advance) |
| | 25 | }}} |
