      1 Changes for 1.6.0:
      2 
      3 * Compilation is much faster and uses much less memory, especially
      4   when the constructor and destructor of a mock class are moved out of
      5   the class body.
      6 * New matchers: Pointwise(), Each().
      7 * New actions: ReturnPointee() and ReturnRefOfCopy().
      8 * CMake support.
      9 * Project files for Visual Studio 2010.
     10 * AllOf() and AnyOf() can handle up-to 10 arguments now.
     11 * Google Mock doctor understands Clang error messages now.
     12 * SetArgPointee<> now accepts string literals.
     13 * gmock_gen.py handles storage specifier macros and template return
     14   types now.
     15 * Compatibility fixes.
     16 * Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.
     17 * Potentially incompatible changes: disables the harmful 'make install'
     18   command in autotools.
     19 
     20 Potentially breaking changes:
     21 
     22 * The description string for MATCHER*() changes from Python-style
     23   interpolation to an ordinary C++ string expression.
     24 * SetArgumentPointee is deprecated in favor of SetArgPointee.
     25 * Some non-essential project files for Visual Studio 2005 are removed.
     26 
     27 Changes for 1.5.0:
     28 
     29  * New feature: Google Mock can be safely used in multi-threaded tests
     30    on platforms having pthreads.
     31  * New feature: function for printing a value of arbitrary type.
     32  * New feature: function ExplainMatchResult() for easy definition of
     33    composite matchers.
     34  * The new matcher API lets user-defined matchers generate custom
     35    explanations more directly and efficiently.
     36  * Better failure messages all around.
     37  * NotNull() and IsNull() now work with smart pointers.
     38  * Field() and Property() now work when the matcher argument is a pointer
     39    passed by reference.
     40  * Regular expression matchers on all platforms.
     41  * Added GCC 4.0 support for Google Mock Doctor.
     42  * Added gmock_all_test.cc for compiling most Google Mock tests
     43    in a single file.
     44  * Significantly cleaned up compiler warnings.
     45  * Bug fixes, better test coverage, and implementation clean-ups.
     46 
     47  Potentially breaking changes:
     48 
     49  * Custom matchers defined using MatcherInterface or MakePolymorphicMatcher()
     50    need to be updated after upgrading to Google Mock 1.5.0; matchers defined
     51    using MATCHER or MATCHER_P* aren't affected.
     52  * Dropped support for 'make install'.
     53 
     54 Changes for 1.4.0 (we skipped 1.2.* and 1.3.* to match the version of
     55 Google Test):
     56 
     57  * Works in more environments: Symbian and minGW, Visual C++ 7.1.
     58  * Lighter weight: comes with our own implementation of TR1 tuple (no
     59    more dependency on Boost!).
     60  * New feature: --gmock_catch_leaked_mocks for detecting leaked mocks.
     61  * New feature: ACTION_TEMPLATE for defining templatized actions.
     62  * New feature: the .After() clause for specifying expectation order.
     63  * New feature: the .With() clause for for specifying inter-argument
     64    constraints.
     65  * New feature: actions ReturnArg<k>(), ReturnNew<T>(...), and
     66    DeleteArg<k>().
     67  * New feature: matchers Key(), Pair(), Args<...>(), AllArgs(), IsNull(),
     68    and Contains().
     69  * New feature: utility class MockFunction<F>, useful for checkpoints, etc.
     70  * New feature: functions Value(x, m) and SafeMatcherCast<T>(m).
     71  * New feature: copying a mock object is rejected at compile time.
     72  * New feature: a script for fusing all Google Mock and Google Test
     73    source files for easy deployment.
     74  * Improved the Google Mock doctor to diagnose more diseases.
     75  * Improved the Google Mock generator script.
     76  * Compatibility fixes for Mac OS X and gcc.
     77  * Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.
