Error trying to build UnitTesting++

[Otto]

Hi, first message here.

I'm new to C++ and Code::Blocks.
I'm following the UnitTesting++ tutorial: http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=UnitTesting#Build_UnitTest.2B.2B

The problem happens right here:

Next open up this project file in Code::Blocks and build the debug and release target.

This is the error:

ar: creating ../Deliv/Debug/libUnitTest++.a
ar: ../Deliv/Debug/src/AssertException.o: No such file or directory
Process terminated with status 1 (0 minutes, 0 seconds)
0 errors, 0 warnings

Full output:

How can I solve that? Thanks

at what spot did you put the cbp file wrt the source files.

If you open up the cbp file and double click a source file from it in the project manager, does CB find that cpp file ?

[Otto]

I'm sorry, I don't understand your first question.

About the second, I checked now and nope, it does not.

Could not open the file '/home/otto/Unit/src/Checks.cpp'.
The file does not exist.

There is something wrong about how the project was read by Code::Blocks.

UnitTest++.cbp is at /home/otto/Unit/UnitTest++/
It's trying to open from the upper dir.

How to fix? thanks.

[Otto]

Oh, the .cbp file contains:

Code

<Unit filename="../src/AssertException.cpp" />
		<Unit filename="../src/AssertException.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/CheckMacros.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/Checks.cpp" />
		<Unit filename="../src/Checks.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/Config.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/CurrentTest.cpp" />
		<Unit filename="../src/CurrentTest.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/DeferredTestReporter.cpp" />
		<Unit filename="../src/DeferredTestReporter.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/DeferredTestResult.cpp" />
		<Unit filename="../src/DeferredTestResult.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/ExecuteTest.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/MemoryOutStream.cpp" />
		<Unit filename="../src/MemoryOutStream.h" />
		<Unit filename="../src/Posix/SignalTranslator.cpp">

Isn't this wrong? Should be src/AssertException.h for example.



Edit: Just for the record, I got time and can confirm that was wrong. Removing all "../" at the beginning of each path worked. I suggest someone fix the wiki.
Thanks.
