I am working on a project based upon MFC, building in Visual studio 2010. I was hoping to ease some of the testing by creating a automate a few (unit) tests of some worker objects (non GUI classes).

Visual Studio 2010 got MS test, and this would be my preferred choice, due to the IDE integration.

However i my attempts failed quite quickly. 1) Add MS-test project 2) Include the source files for testing 3) Change CLR support from Safe -> pure (avoid errors)

The build fails when first interface is meet (my classes override this) Note: The classes build fine in my MFC project.

#include "stdafx.h"
#pragma once
class ihttp_Common
{
public:
    virtual bool            IsExecuting() = 0;
    virtual CEvent&         ExecutionEnded() = 0;
//several other methods
};

I get the error:

 *1>c:\srcPath\SomeInterface.h(9): error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '&'*

Am i defining my interfaces badly ?
Is MS-Test really incompatible with virtual methods

Where is CEvent defined? Is it in a file that has been #included in stdafx.h? – cup Jan 22 '15 at 08:21
yep, it should be in stdafx.h Standard part of MFC – Steffen Villadsen Jan 22 '15 at 10:14

Try using a pre-declaration for CEvent and comment out stdafx.h – user1793036 Jan 23 '15 at 01:23
