Question

Is it possible with gmock to mock a function which contains a class template parameter in it's signature? For example:

template <typename T>
struct Mockable
{
    virtual void do_work(const int num, const T& value) = 0;
};

template <typename T>
struct MockMockable : Mockable<T>
{
    MOCK_METHOD2(do_work, void(const int, const T&));
};
Was it helpful?

Solution

I found the answer, you need to denote the mock methods specifically as template mock methods with a _T

template <typename T>
struct MockMockable : Mockable<T>
{
    MOCK_METHOD2_T(do_work, void(const int, const T&));
};
