257 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,
258 if surrounded by '/'.

310 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
312 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

471 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
473 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
474 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment

614 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Test the second expansion in
615 static pattern rules.
616 * scripts/variables/automatic: Fix to work with the second
619 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test for bug #12091.
621 2005-02-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
623 * scripts/functions/eval: Check that eval of targets within
624 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
626 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
628 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
629 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
630 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
632 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
634 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
635 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
637 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
639 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
642 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
645 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
647 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
648 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
650 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
651 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
653 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
655 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
657 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
659 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
662 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
664 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
665 when rebuilding makefiles.
667 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
669 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
671 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
673 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
674 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
676 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
678 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
680 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
682 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
683 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
685 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
686 prerequisite evaluation code.
688 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
690 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
691 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
692 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
694 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
695 interacting with define/endef variables.
697 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
699 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
700 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
701 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
703 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
705 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
706 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
707 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
709 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
711 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
712 rather than relying on $HOME.
714 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
716 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
717 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
720 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
722 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
723 pattern rules (patch #2349).
725 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
727 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
728 whitespace--bug #5798.
730 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
732 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
734 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
735 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
737 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
739 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
740 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
743 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
745 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
746 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
748 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
750 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
751 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
752 length). Tests patch # 1022.
754 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
755 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
757 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
758 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
760 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
762 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
765 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
767 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
768 conditionals (Bug #1516).
770 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
772 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
773 with no commands (Bug #1418).
775 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
777 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
778 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
780 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
782 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
785 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
787 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
788 characters in targets and prerequisites.
790 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
792 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
793 variables in a single command.
795 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
797 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
798 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
799 double-colon targets.
801 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
803 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
806 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
807 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
809 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
810 in ifdef conditionals.
812 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
814 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
816 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
817 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
818 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
819 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
820 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
822 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
823 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
825 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
826 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
827 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
829 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
831 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
833 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
836 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
837 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
838 for now as it's not yet supported.
840 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
842 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
844 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
846 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
847 -valgrind option to the test suite.
848 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
849 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
850 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
851 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
853 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
855 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
858 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
859 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
860 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
861 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
862 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
864 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
866 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
868 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
870 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
872 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
874 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
875 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
876 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
878 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
880 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
881 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
883 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
885 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
886 directories in the script directories.
888 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
890 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
891 one of the command lines is quiet.
893 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
895 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
898 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
900 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
901 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
903 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
905 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
906 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
909 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
911 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
912 expect a warning message from Make.
914 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
916 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
917 jobs are not supported.
919 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
921 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
923 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
925 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
927 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
929 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
930 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
931 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
933 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
935 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
936 parallel jobs aren't supported.
938 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
940 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
942 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
944 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
945 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
946 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
948 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
949 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
950 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
951 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
953 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
954 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
955 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
956 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
957 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
959 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
960 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
962 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
964 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
965 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
967 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
969 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
970 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
973 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
975 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
976 in a target name (PR/1586).
978 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
980 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
981 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
983 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
985 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
986 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
987 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
989 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
990 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
991 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
993 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
994 instead of hardcoding 2.
995 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
996 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
998 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1000 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
1001 are really directories.
1003 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1005 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
1006 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
1009 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1011 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
1012 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
1013 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
1015 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1017 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
1018 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
1019 intermediate possibilities.
1021 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1023 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1024 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1025 to make sure they're handled serially.
1027 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1029 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1030 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1032 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1033 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1035 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1037 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1038 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1041 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1043 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1044 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1046 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1048 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1049 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1051 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1053 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1054 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1055 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1056 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1058 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1060 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1061 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1062 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1063 as many "sleep" commands.
1065 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1067 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1068 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1069 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1070 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1071 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1072 general, actually... where practical.
1073 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1074 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1076 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1077 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1078 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1080 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1081 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1082 happens before the command line processing).
1083 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1084 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1085 the VOS stuff here, too.
1086 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1087 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1090 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1091 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1092 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1094 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1096 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1097 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1098 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1099 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1100 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1101 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1102 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1103 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1104 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1105 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1106 time as it sees fit.
1108 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1109 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1110 to force the order we want.
1112 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1113 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1114 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1115 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1117 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1118 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1119 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1120 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1121 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1123 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1125 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
1128 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1130 ChangeLog file for the test suite created.
