This greatly simplifies running Catch2 tests in single binary
in parallel from external test runners. Instead of having to
shard the tests by tags/test names, an external test runner
can now just ask for test shard 2 (out of X), and execute that
in single process, without having to know what tests are actually
in the shard.
Note that sharding also applies to test listing, and happens after
tests were ordered according to the `--order` feature.
Using the `CATCH_MOVE` and `CATCH_FORWARD` macros instead of the
`std::move` and `std::forward<T>` utility functions can improve
compilation times and debug build's performance, and thus will
be preferred going forward.
This is a simplification of the fix proposed in #2152, with the
critical function split out so that it can be tested directly,
without having to go through the ULP matcher.
Closes#2152
Previous splitting of catch_common.hpp left it containing only one
actual thing, which is the `SourceLineInfo` type. Given that, there
is no reason to keep the old name.
Also found out that it was included in some places for no reason
(primarily Matchers).
The problem was that Catch2 did not reliably include `<exception>`
before it checked for the feature test macro for
`std::uncaught_exceptions`. To avoid overhead of including
`<exception>` everywhere, the configuration check was split out
into a separate header.
Closes#2021
* Clara is now split between a header and a cpp file.
* Removed the deprecated `+` and `+=` operators for composing
a parser.
* Renamed `clara` and `detail` namespaces to be inline with the
rest of Catch2 (they are now `Clara` and `Detail` respectively).
* Taken most of user-exposed types out of the `Detail` namespace
completely (instead of using `using` directives to bring them into
the outer namespace).
Now that it has its own header, various reporter TUs that want to
format text do not have to also include Clara. Together with
outlining implementations from a header into a separate TU, this
has noticeably improved the compilation times of the testing impl.
As part of this split, I also implemented some improvements to the
TextFlow code in comparison to the upstream code. These are:
* Replaced the `Spacer` type with a free function that constructs
special `Column` that does the same thing.
* Generic performance improvements, such as eliminating needless
allocations, reserving space in needed allocations, and using smarter
algorithms in some places.
* Because `Column` only ever stored 1 string in its vector, it now
holds the string directly instead.
This means that code that uses it no longer has to include all of
catch_config.hpp, which seems to provide significant reduction in
size of unoptimized compilation of the final static library.
This simplified variant supports only a subset of the functionality
in `std::unique_ptr<T>`. `Catch::Detail::unique_ptr<T>` only supports
single element pointer (no array support) with default deleter.
By removing the support for custom deleters, we also avoid requiring
significant machinery to support EBO, speeding up instantiations of
`unique_ptr<T>` significantly. Catch2 also currently does not need
to support `unique_ptr<T[]>`, so that is not supported either.
As far as I know, only a few users actually use it, but these changes
allow us to avoid including a surprising amount of code in the main
compilation path.
As Clara is no longer maintained as a separate project, the
implementation was moved to the internal subfolder of top-level
folder. This removes one folder and avoids potential user confusion.
Also simplified the convenience header checking script accordingly.
There are two reasons for this:
1) It is highly unlikely that someone has use for this header,
which has no customization points and only provides simplest
possible main, and cannot link the static library which also
provides a default main implementation.
2) It being a header was causing extra complications with
the convenience headers, and our checking script. This would either
require special handling in the checking script, or would break user's
of the main convenience header.
All in all, it is simpler and better in the long term to remove it,
than to fix its problems.
The naming scheme is simple, to include all matchers, include header
`catch2/matchers/catch_matchers_all.hpp`. To include **everything**,
include `catch2/catch_all.hpp`.
