Abhishek, All,

Sorry for the delay, I'm now looking at your patch...

SF.net is getting a bad reputation these days, and there is an official
Github repository with the latest 4.4 release:
    https://github.com/CxxTest/cxxtest

Can we use Github instead?

OK, I think we need a bit more info about all tis, as I am not sure I
understand. Let me try to reformulate from what I understood:

  - cxxtest is made of twoo parts:
    - a tool to parse header files (supposedly from a project)
    - a set of header files

  - the tool is built as a host package, so it can be used natively

  - the headers set is installed in staging

Then the use-case is for a user to use the csstest tool to parse his own
headers, that will supposedly generate a test harness, which is then
cross-compiled and run on the target. Right?

Could you expand a bit on the explanations, please?

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
