Solution: Implement a type for each socket option.
Each option has an associated type, therefore they
can't be simply defined as an enum class.
Use new sockopt getter in test util
Add socket option get function for strings and tests
Currently cppzmq as relatively simple and header only library depends on rather
complex unit test framework googletest.
Current issues:
- Googletest requires downloading and building it every time on travis
as cache support is limited there
- Googletest build is signifficant with comparison to cppzmq unittests
total runtime
Solution: Port existing tests to Catch - header only C++ framework and
gain ~20% build speed up on travis.
Why Catch?
It is well know C++ header only testing framework. It works well, it is
being kept up to date and maintainers seem to pay attention to
community's comments and issues.
We can not use Catch2 currently as we still support pre-C++11 compilers.
Solution: instead of waiting for fixed amount of time for events, react
as soon as events are triggered.
- Total running time of unittest reduced 10x (from ~300ms to 30ms).
- Reduced code duplication by reusing testutil's constructs.
Default build, ./ci_build.sh without any arguments, which causes to run
with draft disabled, does not work properly for git cloned repository and
C++11 compiler.
Two issues:
1. For git cloned repository ENABLE_DRAFTS is ON by default but libzmq
compiled build without drafts .Travis did not catch that because default build
runs on non C++11 compiler.
2. testutil.hpp does not build because of missing draft guards.
Solution 1: Remove check for presence of .git for enabling draft API as it
is confusing to use with ENABLE_DRAFTS flag and there should be only one
explicit way to enable draft build.
Solution 2: add missing draft guards in testutil.hpp for server/client
socket in use there.
Solution 3: add extra Travis build covering C++11 compiler and non
draft enabled build.
For header only library like cppzmq, whitespace style inherited from
libzmq is too restrictive.
Solution: relaxing whitespace before parens from always to in control
statements only, increased max column width from 80 to 85 and removing
requirement of whitespace after template keyword.
