Example 3-7 |
import java.util.*;
This is unnecessary. I would guess this was placed there because the class Library
uses the java.util.vector class. Example 3-7 is the source for LibraryTest, which
merely tests the class Library, but isn't the class Library itself. No where in
LibraryTest source does any code involve java.util.* classes.

1st paragraph |
The first sentence of this paragraph starts with the words: "The interface Test
contains the run() method". Test is an abstract base class, not an interface. The
text even states this one paragraph prior.

Example 7-13 |
When I tried this with VC++7.1 with the Chapter 7 example source from the CD (same as
written in the book), I get an error on the CPPUNIT_UNIT_TEST_SUITE_REGISTRATION()
line:
c:TempUnitTestCDexampleschapter7 est.cpp(7) : error C2664:
'CppUnit::AutoRegisterSuite<TestCaseType>::AutoRegisterSuite(const std::string &)' :
cannot convert parameter 1 from 'long' to 'const std::string &'
with
[
TestCaseType=BookTest
]
Reason: cannot convert from 'long' to 'const std::string'
No constructor could take the source type, or constructor overload resolution
was ambiguous
No such problem with gcc 3.4.3 (in Cygwin). Oddly, with VC++7.1, moving the
declaration up three lines -- out of main() -- [into file scope] makes the
compilation succeed.
I found the same thing with cppunit 1.10.2, and someone on the web is doing it this
way independently:

Just before "Step 2: Add a Book to a Library" header |
I did not get the third line of the test results. I believe this is because the
UnitTest::assertTrue shown on page 114 exits when a condition is false.
