should find a solution within the confines of the compiler.
Catching segfaults on linux is possible, it's hard to do and rather
hacky though, this doesn't seem like something that should be included
in the unittesting functionality. I guess a seperate process could be
spawned for unit testing, and if a segfault occurs a message saying so
could be given, but anything more seems excessive, and is the job of a
debugger. Doesn't seem right to integrate a full debugger into every
app compiled with unit tests.
I agree, although I sympathize with not liking gdb, the solution is not
to build a debugger into the compiler, it's build a better debugger.
