zhanyong.wan061f1d42013-04-07 03:16:38 +00001Changes for 1.7.0:
2
zhanyong.wanf4274522013-04-24 02:49:43 +00003* All new improvements in Google Test 1.7.0.
4* New feature: matchers WhenSorted(), WhenSortedBy(), IsEmpty(), and
5 SizeIs().
6* Improvement: Google Mock can now be built as a DLL.
7* Improvement: when exceptions are enabled, a mock method with no
8 default action now throws instead crashing the test.
9* Improvement: function return types used in MOCK_METHOD*() macros can
10 now contain unprotected commas.
11* Improvement (potentially breaking): EXPECT_THAT() and ASSERT_THAT()
12 are now more strict in ensuring that the value type and the matcher
13 type are compatible, catching potential bugs in tests.
14* Improvement: Pointee() now works on an optional<T>.
15* Improvement: the ElementsAreArray() matcher can now take a vector or
16 iterator range as input, and makes a copy of its input elements
17 before the conversion to a Matcher.
18* Bug fix: mock object destruction triggerred by another mock object's
19 destruction no longer hangs.
20* Improvement: Google Mock Doctor works better with newer Clang and
21 GCC now.
22* Compatibility fixes.
23* Bug/warning fixes.

zhanyong.wan79d82b62011-02-24 07:31:48 +000025Changes for 1.6.0:
26
27* Compilation is much faster and uses much less memory, especially
28 when the constructor and destructor of a mock class are moved out of
29 the class body.
30* New matchers: Pointwise(), Each().
31* New actions: ReturnPointee() and ReturnRefOfCopy().
zhanyong.wan62a35fb2011-02-24 21:59:54 +000032* CMake support.
zhanyong.wan79d82b62011-02-24 07:31:48 +000033* Project files for Visual Studio 2010.
34* AllOf() and AnyOf() can handle up-to 10 arguments now.
35* Google Mock doctor understands Clang error messages now.
36* SetArgPointee<> now accepts string literals.
37* gmock_gen.py handles storage specifier macros and template return
38 types now.
39* Compatibility fixes.
40* Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.
zhanyong.wan8d7c5ad2011-04-14 07:49:05 +000041* Potentially incompatible changes: disables the harmful 'make install'
42 command in autotools.
zhanyong.wan79d82b62011-02-24 07:31:48 +000043
44Potentially breaking changes:
45
46* The description string for MATCHER*() changes from Python-style
47 interpolation to an ordinary C++ string expression.
48* SetArgumentPointee is deprecated in favor of SetArgPointee.
49* Some non-essential project files for Visual Studio 2005 are removed.

zhanyong.wan5905ba02010-02-24 17:21:37 +000051Changes for 1.5.0:
52
zhanyong.wanaa28b172010-03-26 05:38:55 +000053 * New feature: Google Mock can be safely used in multi-threaded tests
54 on platforms having pthreads.
55 * New feature: function for printing a value of arbitrary type.
56 * New feature: function ExplainMatchResult() for easy definition of
57 composite matchers.
zhanyong.wan5905ba02010-02-24 17:21:37 +000058 * The new matcher API lets user-defined matchers generate custom
59 explanations more directly and efficiently.
zhanyong.wanaa28b172010-03-26 05:38:55 +000060 * Better failure messages all around.
zhanyong.wan5905ba02010-02-24 17:21:37 +000061 * NotNull() and IsNull() now work with smart pointers.
62 * Field() and Property() now work when the matcher argument is a pointer
63 passed by reference.
zhanyong.wanaa28b172010-03-26 05:38:55 +000064 * Regular expression matchers on all platforms.
zhanyong.wan5905ba02010-02-24 17:21:37 +000065 * Added GCC 4.0 support for Google Mock Doctor.
66 * Added gmock_all_test.cc for compiling most Google Mock tests
67 in a single file.
68 * Significantly cleaned up compiler warnings.
69 * Bug fixes, better test coverage, and implementation clean-ups.
70
71 Potentially breaking changes:
72
73 * Custom matchers defined using MatcherInterface or MakePolymorphicMatcher()
74 need to be updated after upgrading to Google Mock 1.5.0; matchers defined
75 using MATCHER or MATCHER_P* aren't affected.
76 * Dropped support for 'make install'.
