VC++ 8, CppUnit, Vista: How to do unit testing with elevated permissions?

Asked by pepr in C++ Programming Language, Windows Vista

unit tests fail when registering COM Dll components...

Hi experts,

My old unit tests fail when testing registration of COM Dll components on Windows Vista machine. The reason probably is more general. It may not be specific to the registering the component. I think the reason could be that the process does not get the elevated permissions. Can you share your experience with such cases? I am ready to add any details that you need to know for the answer.

I am using CppUnit for Windows from http://cppunit.sourceforge.net (I believe that it is version 1.12.0). It was integrated to VS 2005 C++ using the recommended way => the test is run automatically after building and its output is redirected to he Output window of the IDE. The IDE with C++ is started with elevated permissions.

Thanks,
