We desire for jsoncpp to compile and be readily available
with older versions of cmake. The use of newer cmake
commands requires conditional statements so that older
strategies can be used with older versions of cmake.
Resolves: #1018
1) Improve travis build script for use outside travis.
Allow the script used for CI builds to also be used
locally in a similar manner to the CI use of the scrips
2) Add ctest compatible testing and CDASH support
Report testing and building results to
https://my.cdash.org/index.php?project=jsoncpp
NOTE: The new ctest infrastructure is not yet robust on winodws
Do no yet enable the new features for running test with ctest
on windows platform. The previous behaviors are maintainted,
but enhance test reporting from windows is not yet supported.
3) Add a cmake coverage testing option
Ensure that cmake builds on linux are tested.
Ensure that code coverage is reported.
4) Move conditional environment checking into the matrix
Avoid multiple places where conditional logic is used to
change compiler behavior. As more test environments are
created fromt the travis.yml matrix, all settings should be
obvious from that one location.
5) Tests with known regressions from the jsonchecker are suppressed
Tests that are known to pass with jsoncpp more lenient
syntax enforcement are exluded from tests in test/runjsontests.py
* Clean up closing statements for if conditions, functions, macros,
and other entities. Newer versions of CMake do not require you to
redundantly respecify the parameters to the opening arguments.
To run these tests, in cmake build-dir:
make jsoncpp_check
TravisCI is now set to run these always.
For now, the test_json_lib unit-tests will still run.
issue #187
Igor Okulist and Damien Buhl (Patch #14). Added support for running
tests and building with DLL on Windows.
- added missing JSON_API
- Visual Studio DLL: suppressed warning "C4251: <data member>: <type>
needs to have dll-interface to be used by..." via pragma push/pop
in json-cpp headers.
- New header json/version.h now contains version number macros
(JSONCPP_VERSION_MAJOR, JSONCPP_VERSION_MINOR, JSONCPP_VERSION_PATCH
and JSONCPP_VERSION_HEXA). While this header is generated by CMake,
it is committed to ease build with alternate build system
(CMake only update the file when it changes avoid issues with VCS).
