When used with CppTest should not use cast operator

[anporumb]

The following macro

#define ASSERT_ARE_EQUAL(type, A, B, ...) \
    do \
    { \
        char* ctrs_message = CONSTRUCT_CTRS_MESSAGE(__VA_ARGS__); \
        std::wstring cppUnitTestMessage = ToString(ctrs_message); \
        ctrs_sprintf_free(ctrs_message); \
        Assert::AreEqual((type)(A), (type)(B), cppUnitTestMessage.c_str()); \
    } while ((void)0, 0)

Will allow compilation (in C++) of something like:

ASSERT_ARE_EQUAL(uint64_t, 4873764, (void*)345)

which, frankly, should not be allowed. This creates problems when changing a type from uint64_t to a void* (on a x64 platform).

Consider letting the cast of (type)(A) be in the calling land?
