3* New feature: ADD_FAILURE_AT() for reporting a test failure at the
4  given source location -- useful for writing testing utilities.
5* New feature: the universal value printer is moved from Google Mock
6  to Google Test.
7* New feature: type parameters and value parameters are reported in
8  the XML report now.
9* A gtest_disable_pthreads CMake option.
10* Colored output works in GNU Screen sessions now.
11* Parameters of value-parameterized tests are now printed in the
12  textual output.
13* Failures from ad hoc test assertions run before RUN_ALL_TESTS() are
14  now correctly reported.
15* Arguments of ASSERT_XY and EXPECT_XY no longer need to support << to
16  ostream.
17* More complete handling of exceptions.
18* GTEST_ASSERT_XY can be used instead of ASSERT_XY in case the latter
19  name is already used by another library.
20* --gtest_catch_exceptions is now true by default, allowing a test
21  program to continue after an exception is thrown.
22* Value-parameterized test fixtures can now derive from Test and
23  WithParamInterface<T> separately, easing conversion of legacy tests.
24* Death test messages are clearly marked to make them more
25  distinguishable from other messages.
26* Compatibility fixes for Android, Google Native Client, MinGW, HP UX,
27  PowerPC, Lucid autotools, libCStd, Sun C++, Borland C++ Builder (Code Gear),
28  IBM XL C++ (Visual Age C++), and C++0x.
29* Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.
30* Potentially incompatible changes: disables the harmful 'make install'
31  command in autotools.
32
33Changes for 1.5.0:
34
35 * New feature: assertions can be safely called in multiple threads
36   where the pthreads library is available.

38   can now generate custom failure messages.
39 * New feature: Google Test can now be compiled as a DLL.
40 * New feature: fused source files are included.
41 * New feature: prints help when encountering unrecognized Google Test flags.
42 * Experimental feature: CMake build script (requires CMake 2.6.4+).
43 * Experimental feature: the Pump script for meta programming.
44 * double values streamed to an assertion are printed with enough precision
45   to differentiate any two different values.
46 * Google Test now works on Solaris and AIX.
47 * Build and test script improvements.
48 * Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.
49
50 Potentially breaking changes:
51
52 * Stopped supporting VC++ 7.1 with exceptions disabled.

61 * New feature: when a test runs under Visual Studio, its failures are
62   integrated in the IDE.
63 * New feature: /MD(d) versions of VC++ projects.
64 * New feature: elapsed time for the tests is printed by default.
65 * New feature: comes with a TR1 tuple implementation such that Boost

68 * New feature: the Xcode project can now produce static gtest
69   libraries in addition to a framework.

81 * New feature: the --help flag for printing the usage.
82 * New feature: access to Google Test flag values in user code.
83 * New feature: a script that packs Google Test into one .h and one
84   .cc file for easy deployment.
