[CMake] Fwd: Problem finding DLLS to use with tests

Thu Jun 23 15:16:02 EDT 2011

So, you are manually running your tests, for example, the
'test_julian.exe' or 'testcpp.exe'?  Running them from a command prompt
gives you that same error about the application has failed to start?
And the name of the dll's exactly match?  And you have tried copying the
.dll into the same directory and running it manually?

You can use Dependency Walker to run a program and debug the issues it
has with DLL.  Some versions of Visual Studio come with a version of it.
You can run depends.exe from a visual studio command prompt and pass it
the executable.  If you don't have it, you can get it from
http://www.dependencywalker.com/.  You can profile and executable by
hitting F7 (I usually checkmark all the options to on) and it will tell
you all about what it is doing to bootstrap you exe, including where it
fails.  Usually, this will give you a better idea of what happened,
where it looked for the DLL, and why it rejected ones that seemed like
they should have worked.  In particular, it might be finding that DLL
fine, but the DLL is returning 0 from DllMain() and failing to be
loaded.

Hope that helps!

Can you post your CMakeLists.txt?  Did you get different errors for each
of the 3 solutions you tried, or were they all the same error?  What was
the exception code?

I got the same error. I did not receive a exception throw when I ran the
testing code via Visual Studio. I got a message that said:

"The application has failed to start because
boost_unit_test_framework-vc100-mt-gd-1_46_1.dll was not found.
Reinstalling the application may fix the problem".

It looks like I either need to copy the boost dlls I use to my test
directory or somehow add the boost directory to the PATH environment
variable.
