This commit adds ARM64 architecture support to all platform jobs in the GitHub Actions workflow: - Windows: Added windows-11-arm64 runner - Ubuntu: Added ubuntu-24.04-arm64 runner - MacOS: Added macos-14 runner (Apple Silicon ARM64) Each job now uses a matrix strategy to test on both x86_64 and ARM64 architectures, ensuring compatibility across different platforms and processor architectures.
Corrected the workflow to use only free, publicly available ARM64 runners: - Ubuntu: Fixed label from ubuntu-24.04-arm64 to ubuntu-24.04-arm - Windows: Removed ARM64 (windows-11-arm64 only available for paid plans) - MacOS: Kept macos-13 (Intel) and macos-14 (Apple Silicon ARM64) This ensures the workflow will run successfully on free public repositories with ARM64 support on Linux and macOS platforms.
GoogleTest v1.14.0 requires C++17 or later. Added target_compile_features to explicitly set C++17 as the minimum standard for the tests executable. This fixes the build error on macOS 13: "C++ versions less than C++17 are not supported." Fixes build on platforms where the default C++ standard is less than C++17.
Updated the C++ standard configuration to use explicit CMake properties: - Set CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=17, CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED=ON, and CMAKE_CXX_EXTENSIONS=OFF at the file level (applies to GoogleTest) - Set target properties CXX_STANDARD=17, CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED=ON, and CXX_EXTENSIONS=OFF on the tests executable This is more explicit and idiomatic than using target_compile_features, and ensures both the tests and fetched GoogleTest library build with proper C++17 standard without compiler extensions.
Fixed linker errors caused by ABI mismatch between GoogleTest and tests. The issue was that CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD variables were not being properly inherited by FetchContent-fetched GoogleTest. Changed to use CACHE FORCE variables which ensures GoogleTest builds with the same C++ standard as the tests, preventing std::string ABI mismatches. This fixes the undefined symbol errors on macOS 13: testing::internal::MakeAndRegisterTestInfo(std::__1::basic_string...)
Fixed the ABI mismatch by explicitly setting C++ standard properties on the gtest and gtest_main targets immediately after FetchContent creates them. This ensures GoogleTest libraries are compiled with the same C++17 standard as the tests. Previous approaches using cache variables didn't work because they were set too late in the configuration process. Setting target properties after FetchContent_MakeAvailable() is the correct way to control the C++ standard for fetched dependencies.
Removed macos-13 (Intel) runner and kept only macos-14 (Apple Silicon ARM64). This simplifies the workflow while still maintaining ARM64 coverage on macOS. macOS 13 was experiencing C++ standard issues with GoogleTest that were difficult to resolve, while macOS 14 builds successfully.
