Before I begin, I want to say that I am aware of this question, but no answer was satisfactory. Maybe because this question was asked in 2012 and things might have changed until 2021.
I want to use Google Test with Code::Blocks to write some tests. In order to do this, I downloaded the latest version from Github and built it with the last version of CMake.
In the next step, I opened the project file with it and I tried to build it. As a result, I got the following error messages:

As I see, the errors appear in only two files. I tried all the answers in the aforementioned question, without success at all.
How can I fix those errors, so I can finally begin to write my test cases and go on with my work?
