googlemock - mock a method that returns a complex datatyp

c++, googlemock, googletest

Solution

Just use a `typedef` like this:

class aClass
{
public:
   typedef const QMap<QString, QString> MyType;
   virtual MyType aMethod() const;
}

class MockaClass : public aClass
{
public:
   MOCK_CONST_METHOD0(aMethod, MyType());
}

Problem

I want to mock a method that returns a complex datatyp ``` class aClass { public: virtual const QMap<QString, QString> aMethod() const; } class MockaClass : public aClass { public: MOCK_CONST_METHOD0(aMethod, const QMap<QString, QString>()); } ``` This code does not compile: "macro "MOCK_CONST_METHOD0" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2" I think that the googlemock macro does not understand QMap and interpret the comma as parameter separator. Is there a way to tell googlemock that QMap is the return value?
