cpputest on STM8 failed due multiple 'main'


I want to use cpputest on STM8 and installed all the required tools for it. I am able to run cpputest on my simplified code. on my main file which belongs to the hardware I have of course the main function. But in the Test environment I have a main function under AllTests.cpp as well. When I compile it i get the error:

multiple definition of `main'

A further issue I run into is: I compile the code for a 8bit processor and i use the library <stdint.h>, so my main file has the line uint8_t main(){ . The compiler of cpputest does not like that at all...

Does anyone has an idea how to fix this?

uint16_t blink(){
    PD_DDR = 0x1;
    PD_CR1 = 0x1;

    // Configure pins

Solution

  • As suggested in the commends, there was no other way to create a file with the main loop for only the Controller and separate it from the unit tests.

    My structure looks like: main.c: - contains the includes from the firmware (app.h) and the main() with the run_app() app.c: contains all the firmware and is tested with cpputest
