GTEST - ASSERT_EQ and EXPECT_EQ compile error

[Ethan Lim]

I have been trying to use the assertion of ASSERT_EQ and EXPECT_EQ,

ASSERT_EQ(queue_->size(),6);

even using this

ASSERT_EQ(6,6);

However, I encountered this compiler error and everywhere I searched no one seems to be facing this problem.

/tmp/cczZfMaq.o: In function testing::AssertionResult testing::internal::EqHelper<false>::Compare<char, char>(char const*, char const*, char const&, char const&)': /usr/include/gtest/gtest.h:1485: undefined reference totesting::AssertionResult testing::internal::CmpHelperEQ(char const*, char const*, char const&, char const&)' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: * [priority_queue_test.out] Error 1

        }

        }//namespace

This is not a compiler error. This is a linker error.

Just like any other library, gTest needs to be compiled itself and linked into the binary. Using the headers without linking the library is not supported.

I realised that if the following options -fno-implicit-templates is used, there would be the following errors.
