Googletest: Compilation terminated #include <limits>

Created on 1 Oct 2017  Â·  6Comments  Â·  Source: google/googletest

Hello,

I am trying to install Googletest, and I keep getting this error.

In file included from gtest_dir/src/gtest-all.cc:39:0:
gtest_dir/include/gtest/gtest.h:54:10: fatal error: limits: No such file or directory
#include
^~~~
compilation terminated.

I followed the directions in README with my own path to the necessary files. Is there something else that I should be including?

Thank you.

Is there a workaround to this issue? I've been trying to use gtest for C.

is a standard C++ header file(see http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/header/limits). What is your environment? It seems that C++ standard headers are not installed on your machine or include paths are incorrectly set in your case.

I am using OSX and have the updated Xcode and GCC to use for compiling
Googletest. It appears to be finding the documents, so I don't think it's a
path issue. I'm not sure if there is some program that is incompatible or
if I didn't install all of the necessary tools.

Could you please attach output from command:
make VERBOSE=1

This error appears then you use gcc compiler instead g++.
For example then compiling .c file

Is there a workaround to this issue? I've been trying to use gtest for C.

Thank you very much for this report. Unfortunately there appears to be no actionable information.
