Setting the Compiler Option for a C++ Application

Before you make the .exe and .pdb files for an AUT written in C++, you need to
set the compiler option.

To set the compiler option in Visual C++:
1. Open the project file in Visual C++.
2. Click Project > Settings, and then click the Link tab.
3. In the Project options box, scroll to the end and add /fixed:no to the options.

If you are working with the C++ application in an IDE other that Visual C++,
make sure that you set the equivalent option to indicate that there are relocations in
the executable file before you compile.

Instrumenting Object Code

To instrument the object code for the AUT:
1. Click Tools > Instrument, or click Instrument on the Standard toolbar.

If the AUT has dependent .dll files, and you want to get coverage information
on the code written in these files, you must add them to the Files to instrument
list. If you specified the executable file for the AUT on step 2 of the New Project
Wizard, then the Files to instrument list already contains the path of the
executable file, as well as any dependent .dll files that TestFactory found in the
same directory. If you did not specify the executable file for the AUT in the
New Project Wizard, then add it to the Files to instrument list now.
