  1. POBOOST Unit Test stack overflow
    text
    copied!<p>I am now using <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/libs/test/doc/components/utf/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Boost Unit Test</a> to perform unit test for my project. Every time I run the unit test, I got a memory stack problem. I debug into the source code of BOOST library, and I find that the problem comes from invoking the following codes in unit_test_suite.hpp file:</p> <pre><code>void traverse_test_tree( test_unit_id id, test_tree_visitor&amp; V ) { global_i = global_i + 1; std::cout&lt;&lt;global_i&lt;&lt;std::endl; if( ut_detail::test_id_2_unit_type( id ) == tut_case ) traverse_test_tree( framework::get&lt;test_case&gt;( id ), V ); else traverse_test_tree( framework::get&lt;test_suite&gt;( id ), V ); } </code></pre> <p>The error information I have obtained from VC10 is:</p> <pre><code>Unhandled exception at 0x779815de in TestApplication.exe: 0xC00000FD: Stack overflow. </code></pre> <p>I was wondering what's wrong with the test program. Thanks!</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> Based on the suggestions I looked through my codes, and very strange things happen: if the test suite is defined in same program with main(), it works; however, if the test suite is from a .dll, the error will occur. I list the following codes to illustrate my problem:</p> <pre><code>boost::unit_test::test_suite* main_global_test_suite; void Hellotestdll() { int i= 1; int j= 2; BOOST_CHECK(i == j); } boost::unit_test::test_suite* get_abc_test_suite() { test_suite* ts = BOOST_TEST_SUITE( "unit_geometric" ); ts-&gt;add( BOOST_TEST_CASE( &amp;Hellotestdll ) ); return ts; } int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { try { /** * Step 1. obtain options */ char* optionLine[1024]; int len; len = obtain_options(optionLine, argc, argv); /** * Step 2. perform unit test based on user's options */ int test_status=0; main_global_test_suite = get_abc_test_suite(); test_status = unit_test_main(run_global_test_suite, len, optionLine); return test_status; } catch(std::exception&amp; e) { std::cout &lt;&lt; e.what() &lt;&lt; std::endl; return 1; } catch (const std::string&amp; s) { std::cout &lt;&lt; s &lt;&lt; std::endl; return 1; } catch (...) { return 1; } } </code></pre> <p>The above codes work very well. But if the test suite is from a .dll, for example:</p> <pre><code>// dll_header.h namespace abc { ABC_EXPORT boost::unit_test::test_suite* get_geometric_test_suite(); } // dll_header.cpp namespace abc { using namespace boost; using namespace boost::unit_test; void Hellotestdllabc() { int i= 1; int j= 2; BOOST_CHECK(i == j); } boost::unit_test::test_suite* get_abc_test_suite() { test_suite* ts = BOOST_TEST_SUITE( "unit_abc" ); ts-&gt;add( BOOST_TEST_CASE( &amp;Hellotestdllabc ) ); return ts; } } </code></pre> <p>Then if I invoke this test suite, with the following codes:</p> <pre><code> int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { ............ /** * Step 2. perform unit test based on user's options */ int test_status=0; main_global_test_suite = abc::get_abc_test_suite(); test_status = unit_test_main(run_global_test_suite, len, optionLine); return test_status; } </code></pre> <p>The annoying stack overflow error will happen. </p> <p><strong>Summery of the Problems</strong></p> <pre><code> (1) boost dll with MDd (Succeed) </code></pre> <p>If I link the boost unit test library (with the definition <code>-DBOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK -DBOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN -DBOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB</code>)and the running executable program with the same dynamic run-time library (Multi-thread Debug Dll (MDd)), it will work.</p> <pre><code>(2) boost dll with MTd (Failed) </code></pre> <p>If the boost unit test library (with the definition <code>-DBOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK -DBOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN -DBOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB</code>)and the running executable program are compiled and link with the same static run-time libray (Multi-thred Debu (MTd)), I will have a crash, but the crash is different from the one I reported above: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/P3p87.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <pre><code>(3) boost static lib with MDd (Failed) </code></pre> <p>If the boost is built as a static library (with the definition of <code>-DBOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB</code>), and both the boost library and the executable program are built with the same dynamic run-time library (MDd). The following crash will happen: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/kk7ot.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <pre><code>(4) boost static lib with MTd (Failed) </code></pre> <p>If the boost is built as a static library (with the definition of <code>-DBOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB</code>), and both the boost library and the executable program are built with the same static run-time library (MTd). The following crash will happen: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zR3jE.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
