As they say: any problem in computer science can be solved with another level of indirection :-). I've done TDD with system-level APIs provided as free functions by creating a domain-specific wrapper around them. I've done it with both static polymorphism and dynamic polymorphism. Link-time mocking is another alternative, of course. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://computergraphicsmuseum.org> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals.classiccmp.org> Legalize Adulthood!

That is one solution I have used in the past, however mocking them required a lot less work - especially if the mocking framework generates all of the code for you. My framework takes an XML definition of a function signature (which can its self be code generated from a header) and produces a class object with a rich set of static member functions for setting return values and setting up parameter checks. -- Ian Collins |

As far as I am aware, the standard does have the notion »to define an object«. A sole exception I am aware of is »implementation-defined object« in the sentence »the thrown exception is replaced by an implementation-defined object of type std::bad_exception«. What can be defined, according to 3.1, are »names«. |
