Subject: Unit tests on Windows DLL internals

Question about developing on Windows:

How do you manage unit testing of internal classes in DLLs?

Internal classes (that are not DLL exported) are by design not visible through the DLL interface, which means linking a unit test against the DLL won't allow it to access the internal APIs it is supposed to test.
(No such problem on Linux where all functions inside the shared library are visible.)

I know I can work around by linking the needed objects directly into the test executable. Is there any preferable or better solution?

Thanks,
~Ralph
