RAD Studio 12.0 / Clang / GoogleTests

[Roger Cigol 103]

Just posting this in case anyone else out there is wasting their time on this.....

It seems that there is currently a problem with using the Clang compilers in RAD Studio 12.0 with the GoogleTest framework on getit. The version currently (Jan 2024) available does not build correctly.

I will monitor this situation and blog here as soon as Embarcadero have a working GoogleTest framework on getit.

OK I have a work around for this issue. It assumes that users have downloaded the GoogleTest library from getit using RAD Studio (or C++ Builder) 11.

Details are at this blog:

Thank you, Roger.

Just to add that I have now repeated this exercise but this time using the Clang32 compiler for unit testing a Windows 32 bit app. All went as expected - no issues.
