Please see the next two sections on how you can integrate Google -Mock into your project's build system. +The msvc/ directory contains VC++ 2005 projects for building Google Mock and +selected tests. In order to build Google Mock you must have an implementation +of TR1 tuple. One library that provides such implementation is Boost. If you +choose to use Boost, download it from www.boost.org and install it on your +system. After that you have two options: either configure Boost as a system +library or modify the Google Mock project to point to your copy of Boost. The +former solution will let all your tests use the same copy of Boost while the +latter one will let each of your projects use its own copy of Boost. You can +also use a hybrid solution: your project settings will override the system-wide +one. + +For example, if you unpacked boost v1.36.0 into C:\boost: +To configure Boost as a system library. + * Assuming you are using the Visual Studio 2008 IDE, select Tools | + Options | Projects And Solutions | VC++ Directories. + * In the "Show directories for" drop-down select Include Files. Add + * C:\boost\boost_1_36_0\boost\tr1\tr1 and C:\boost\boost_1_36_0 + to the list of directories. + +To configure your project to point to that version of Boost, replace +the value of the BoostDir user macro with C:\boost\boost_1_36_0 in the +msvc/gtest_dep.vsprops file. You can use any text editor to edit that file. + +If you want to use a version of Google Test other then the one bundled with +Google Mock, change the value of the GTestDir macro in gmock_config.vsprop +to point to the new location. + +After configuring Boost, just open msvc/gmock.sln and build the library and +tests. If you want to create your own project to use with Google Mock, you'll +have to configure it to use the gmock_config propety sheet. For that: + * Open the Property Manager window (View/Other Windows/Property Manager) + * Right-click on your project and select "Add Existing Property Sheet..." + * Navigate to gmock_config.vsprops and select it. ### Using GNU Make ### The make/ directory contains a Makefile that you can use to build |
