When I am using ASSERT_TRUE()
provided in Gtest
I am getting below error.
return type does not match function type
with an underline in VS 2010.
.
#include "gtest\gtest.h"
class abc {
pubilc:
bool fun();
private:
bool fun1();
};
bool abc::fun()
{
ASSERT_TRUE(fun1()); // Getting error: return type does not match function type
}
bool abc::fun1()
{
return true; // True or false depanding on operation
}
There is no return
statement specified in fun()
but it returns a bool
. Add a return false;
or return true;
to fun()
or change its return type to void
:
void abc::fun()
{
ASSERT_TRUE(fun1());
}
Based on My compiler complains that a constructor (or destructor) cannot return a value. What's going on? which states (verbatim):
Due to a peculiarity of C++, in order to support the syntax for streaming messages to an ASSERT_*, e.g.
ASSERT_EQ(1, Foo()) << "blah blah" << foo;
we had to give up using ASSERT* and FAIL* (but not EXPECT* and ADD_FAILURE*) in constructors and destructors. The workaround is to move the content of your constructor/destructor to a private void member function, or switch to EXPECT_*() if that works. This section in the user's guide explains it.
the return
type must be void
in functions that use ASSERT_*()
macros.
