CppUnit, very simple test code crashed, why?

I am learning CppUnit, and my code coredumped when calling TestRunner::run(). That's line 34 in the below code. I can not see anything wrong. It is almost identical to the sample code in the CppUnit cookbook.

#include <iostream>  
#include <cppunit/TestCaller.h>  
#include <cppunit/TestSuite.h>  
#include <cppunit/ui/text/TestRunner.h>  
using namespace std;  

//class MyFixture: public CppUnit::TestFixture {  
class MyFixture{  
public:  
   MyFixture() {cout<<"MyFixture:: ctor()"<<endl;}  
   ~MyFixture() {cout<<"MyFixture:: dtor()"<<endl;}  
   void setUp() {cout<<"MyFixture::Setup()"<<endl;}  
   void tearDown() {cout<<"MyFixture::tearDown()"<<endl;}  
   void testFunc1() {cout<<"MyFixture::testFunc1()"<<endl; m=1; CPPUNIT_ASSERT(m==1);}  
   void testFunc2() {cout<<"MyFixture::testFunc2()"<<endl; m=2;}  
   int m;  
   static CppUnit::TestSuite * CreateSuite();  
};  

CppUnit::TestSuite * MyFixture::CreateSuite()  
{  
   CppUnit::TestSuite * suite = new CppUnit::TestSuite("My TestSuite for MyFixture");  
   suite->addTest(new CppUnit::TestCaller<MyFixture>("MyFixture::testFunc1", &MyFixture::testFunc1));  
   suite->addTest(new CppUnit::TestCaller<MyFixture>("MyFixture::testFunc2", &MyFixture::testFunc2));  
}  

int main()  
{  
   cout<<"point 1000"<<endl;  
   CppUnit::TextUi::TestRunner runner;  
   runner.addTest(MyFixture::CreateSuite());  
   cout<<"point 7000"<<endl;  
/*Line34*/   runner.run();  


   cout<<"point 8000"<<endl;  
}  

The output:

  cppunit$ ./test_runner   
  point 1000  
  MyFixture:: ctor()  
  MyFixture:: ctor()  
  point 7000  
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)  

The stack trace:

The compile line: g++ -g -o -Wall test_runner test_runner.cpp -lcppunit

It compile successfully without any warning.

If I turned on "-Wall", it gave error:

Given that the signature for the function is:

CppUnit::TestSuite * MyFixture::CreateSuite()

shouldn't you be returning something (suite would be my first guess)?

By not returning anything, the line:

runner.addTest(MyFixture::CreateSuite());

is going to add a very dodgy pointer to your runner.

And the reason you're probably getting those errors when you insert -Wall is because:

g++ -g -o -Wall test_runner test_runner.cpp -lcppunit
       \______/ \___________________________________/

will try to output your executable to the file -Wall by linking together test_runner, test_runner.cpp and the cppunit library. Perhaps you meant to type:

g++ -g -Wall -o test_runner test_runner.cpp -lcppunit
             \____________/ \_______________________/

(I'm assuming here that the compile line you gave was the one where the errors occurred since it actually has -Wall in it ).
