CMock Failed Parsing Declaration Prototype

[Aleksa]

Hello guys, looking forward to some help here!

I've been working on a Unit Test system setup with CMock + Unity for a BLE app. But when I try CMocking some headers in the nrf sdk(eg. nrf_erratas.h), I get a "Failed Parsing Declaration Prototype" Error from the cmock_header_parser.rb script. 

From what I've seen so far, it seems as if CMock has issues with Macros and static inline functions. And I found this post:

https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/54255/how-did-nordic-mock-headers-like-app_timer-h-with-many-dependencies

Which explains quite well what to do. But I don't understand where should I put the newly created ".h" file? Because the file that was linked to nrf_erratas.h will still include it, unless I mess with the SDK directly. So a bit of a walkthrough for dummies would be great.

Also, I am trying to do this with Makefiles. In your example here:

https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-nrf/blob/master/tests/unity/CMakeLists.txt

I saw you did it with CMake. Is it your suggestion to switch over to the CMakeLists?

Anyway, thanks a lot for reading this. This seems like a great community and I hope we will have fun together in the future!

When I try running these two scripts in /sdk-nrf/scripts/unity, I get the same output macros as they were before, and I still get the same error from cmock_header_parser.rb

Hi Alesksa, 

Did you edit CMakeLists.txt to call cmock_handle with the header file and, optionally, the relative path to the header as arguments as the doc?

I've tried using makefiles to call the ruby script that mocks header files. 

But I don't understand what does the preprocessing do to macros, because they still don't get through the parsing .rb script even if I try to use scripts given in the /sdk-nrf/scripts/unity to preprocess them.

What context is that? nRF5 SDK or nRF Connect SDK?
