302 * scripts/functions/eval: Update error message for command -> recipe.
304 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,
305 if surrounded by '/'.
306 * scripts/misc/close_stdout: Use a regex for the answer, since

330 Icarus Sparry <savannah@icarus.freeuk.com>
332 * test_driver.pl (_run_command): New function: this is called by
333 other functions to actually run a command. Before we run it,

357 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
359 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

481 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
482 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the

516 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
518 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
520 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
521 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
522 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some
523 variables are leaking out beyond the tests they are intended for.

541 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
543 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
545 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.
547 2005-06-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

624 termination bug. Add a test for stem triple-expansion bug.
626 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Add a test for stem
627 triple-expansion bug.
629 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Change test #4 to reflect
630 new way empty prerequisite list is handled.
633 2005-03-01 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
635 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Add a test for
638 2005-02-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
640 * scripts/options/dash-q: Add a test for Savannah bug # 7144.
642 * scripts/options/symlinks: New file to test checking of symlink
643 timestamps. Can't use filename dash-L because it conflicts with
644 dash-l on case-insensitive filesystems.
646 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST, scripts/variables/MFILE_LIST:
647 Rename MAKEFILE_LIST test to MFILE_LIST, for systems that need 8.3
650 2005-02-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
652 * scripts/variables/DEFAULT_TARGET: Test the .DEFAULT_TARGET
655 2005-02-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
657 * scripts/features/se_explicit: Test the second expansion in
659 * scripts/features/se_implicit: Test the second expansion in
661 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Test the second expansion in
662 static pattern rules.
663 * scripts/variables/automatic: Fix to work with the second
666 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test for bug #12091.
668 2005-02-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
670 * scripts/functions/eval: Check that eval of targets within
671 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
673 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
675 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
676 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
677 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
679 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
681 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
682 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
684 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
686 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
689 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
692 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
694 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
695 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
697 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
698 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
700 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
702 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
704 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
706 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
709 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
711 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
712 when rebuilding makefiles.
714 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
716 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
718 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
720 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
721 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
723 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
725 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
727 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
729 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
730 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
732 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
733 prerequisite evaluation code.
735 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
737 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
738 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
739 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
741 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
742 interacting with define/endef variables.
744 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
746 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
747 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
748 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
750 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
752 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
753 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
754 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
756 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
758 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
759 rather than relying on $HOME.
761 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
763 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
764 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
767 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
769 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
770 pattern rules (patch #2349).
772 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
774 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
775 whitespace--bug #5798.
777 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
779 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
781 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
782 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
784 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
786 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
787 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
790 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
792 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
793 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
795 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
797 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
798 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
799 length). Tests patch # 1022.
801 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
802 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
804 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
805 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
807 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
809 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
812 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
814 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
815 conditionals (Bug #1516).
817 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
819 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
820 with no commands (Bug #1418).
822 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
824 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
825 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
827 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
829 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
832 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
834 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
835 characters in targets and prerequisites.
837 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
839 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
840 variables in a single command.
842 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
844 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
845 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
846 double-colon targets.
848 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
850 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
853 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
854 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
856 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
857 in ifdef conditionals.
859 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
861 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
863 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
864 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
865 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
866 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
867 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
869 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
870 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
872 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
873 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
874 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
876 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
878 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
880 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
883 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
884 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
885 for now as it's not yet supported.
887 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
889 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
891 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
893 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
894 -valgrind option to the test suite.
895 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
896 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
897 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
898 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
900 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
902 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
905 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
906 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
907 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
908 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
909 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
911 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
913 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
915 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
917 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
919 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
921 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
922 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
923 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
925 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
927 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
928 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
930 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
932 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
933 directories in the script directories.
935 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
937 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
938 one of the command lines is quiet.
940 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
942 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
945 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
947 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
948 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
950 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
952 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
953 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
956 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
958 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
959 expect a warning message from Make.
961 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
963 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
964 jobs are not supported.
966 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
968 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
970 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
972 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
974 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
976 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
977 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
978 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
980 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
982 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
983 parallel jobs aren't supported.
985 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
987 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
989 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
991 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
992 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
993 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
995 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
996 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
997 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
998 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1000 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
1001 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
1002 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
1003 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
1004 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
1006 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
1007 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
1009 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1011 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
1012 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
1014 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1016 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
1017 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
1020 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1022 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
1023 in a target name (PR/1586).
1025 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1027 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
1028 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
1030 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1032 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
1033 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
1034 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
1036 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
1037 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
1038 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
1039 1 for other systems.
1040 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
1041 instead of hardcoding 2.
1042 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
1043 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
1045 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1047 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
1048 are really directories.
1050 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1052 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
1053 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
1056 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1058 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
1059 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
1060 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
1062 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1064 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
1065 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
1066 intermediate possibilities.
1068 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1070 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1071 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1072 to make sure they're handled serially.
1074 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1076 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1077 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1079 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1080 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1082 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1084 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1085 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1088 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1090 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1091 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1093 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1095 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1096 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1098 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1100 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1101 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1102 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1103 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1105 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1107 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1108 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1109 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1110 as many "sleep" commands.
1112 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1114 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1115 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1116 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1117 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1118 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1119 general, actually... where practical.
1120 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1121 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1123 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1124 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1125 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1127 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1128 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1129 happens before the command line processing).
1130 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1131 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1132 the VOS stuff here, too.
1133 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1134 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1137 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1138 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1139 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1141 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1143 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1144 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1145 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1146 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1147 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1148 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1149 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1150 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1151 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1152 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1153 time as it sees fit.
1155 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1156 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1157 to force the order we want.
1159 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1160 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1161 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1162 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1164 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1165 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1166 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1167 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1168 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1170 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1172 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
