Mocking a method with a throw() specifier

[J R]

I am trying to Google mock a virtual method which has a throw()
specifier. The original function looks like this:

virtual ReturnValue FunctionName() const throw();
I am getting the compiler error: looser throw specifier for 'virtual
FunctionSignature' when I try to mock it.

Here is the code I have tried thus far:

MOCK_CONST_METHOD0( FunctionName, ReturnValue() );
MOCK_CONST_METHOD0( FunctionName, ReturnValue() throw() );
MOCK_CONST_METHOD0( FunctionName, ReturnValue() ) throw(); // Gives a
different error entirely.

I've tried just about every other combination I can think of, but
these are the ones which seem most logical. How do I go about mocking
a method with a throw() specifier?

It's not supported currently. See

My solution: create an implementation of the virtual function which
consists solely of passing through to a mocked method.

MOCK_CONST_METHOD0( MockFunctionName, ReturnValue() );

virtual ReturnValue FunctionName() const throw()

{
return MockFunctionName();
}

Then, whenever you need to write an Expect_Call or do anything for
that method, just refer to MockFunctionName.
