CMock 2.0
- Even Better Parser than 1.9 (someday maybe it'll be a full-blown C parser)
- strange arrays containing arithmetic operators, etc.
- more difficult anonymous function pointers
- loads of little detailed fixes here and there.
- Smart internal memory management
- CMock 2 has a much smarter built-in memory manager for storing all those expected and returnable values. You can even teach it to understand your processor's alignment and packing needs.
- It's fast... WAY faster than CMock 1.
- It's efficient... WAY more compact than CMock 1.
- Pointers and Arrays
- The Actual Line Number
- How embarrassing. When CMock was an internal project it was acceptable to report failures as the line in the Mock file... but the test writer cares about the line in the TEST that failed. We've fixed that.
- Better variable naming
- CMock 2 chooses names for internal storage that you're unlikely to run into conflicts with... finally!
- Supports all the latest Unity assertions internally.
CMock 1.9
- Better Parser
- CMock 1 was dandy for developing new code, but when you pointed it at some nasty legacy code or complicated libraries, it cried and hid its head in shame. No longer! CMock handles all sorts of craziness. Unnamed arguments, custom types, function pointers... it happily crunches through all of it and gives you your mocked goodies.
- Easier Configuration
- We admit it, the original CMock was kinda painful sometimes. We hope you'll find the latest version a more pleasant experience.
- Pointers and Arrays
- CMock 1 was a little lazy sometimes. When you passed a pointer as an argument, it just assumed you wanted to compare pointers. Often this wasn't the desired behavior. Now, you're in control. With the array plugin, you can specify if you want the pointer compared, the object being pointed to, or if that pointer is actually an array that should be compared.
- Arguments can actually be function pointers now. How cool is that?
- Stubs and Callbacks
- Sometimes you want to fill data into an object being pointed to
- Sometimes you want to perform really complicated comparisons in your mocks
- Sometimes you want to trigger custom events during your mock calls
- The new callback plugin gives you the power to do all that
