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

170 Original idea and patch for a single-test version provided by
171 Icarus Sparry <savannah@icarus.freeuk.com>
173 * test_driver.pl (_run_command): New function: this is called by
174 other functions to actually run a command. Before we run it,
175 install a SIGALRM handler and set up a timer to go off in the
176 future (default is 5s; this can be overridden by individual tests).

198 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
200 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

236 guarantees that we have to merge variable lists of different
237 sizes. Tests for Savannah bug #15757.
239 2006-02-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

316 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): If we can't get the value
317 of $(MAKE) from make, then fatal immediately.
319 2005-08-31 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
321 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
322 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
323 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the
324 previous methods. This tries to be more accurate on Windows
327 2005-08-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
329 * scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
330 to get a better idea of what's wrong. Make warnings instead of

337 2005-08-25 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

357 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
359 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
361 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
362 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
363 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some

382 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
384 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
386 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.
388 2005-06-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

512 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
514 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
516 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
517 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes

616 whitespace--bug #5798.
618 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
620 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
622 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
623 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
625 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
627 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
628 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
631 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
633 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
634 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
636 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
638 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
639 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
640 length). Tests patch # 1022.
642 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
643 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
645 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
646 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
648 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
650 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
653 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
655 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
656 conditionals (Bug #1516).
658 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
660 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
661 with no commands (Bug #1418).
663 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
665 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
666 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
668 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
670 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
673 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
675 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
676 characters in targets and prerequisites.
678 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
680 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
681 variables in a single command.
683 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
685 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
686 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
687 double-colon targets.
689 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
691 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
694 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
695 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
697 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
698 in ifdef conditionals.
700 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
702 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
704 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
705 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
706 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
707 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
708 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
710 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
711 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
713 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
714 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
715 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
717 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
719 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
721 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
724 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
725 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
726 for now as it's not yet supported.
728 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
730 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
732 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
734 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
735 -valgrind option to the test suite.
736 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
737 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
738 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
739 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
741 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
743 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
746 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
747 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
748 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
749 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
750 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
752 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
754 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
756 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
758 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
760 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
762 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
763 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
764 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
766 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
768 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
769 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
771 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
773 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
774 directories in the script directories.
776 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
778 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
779 one of the command lines is quiet.
781 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
783 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
786 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
788 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
789 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
791 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
793 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
794 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
797 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
799 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
800 expect a warning message from Make.
802 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
804 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
805 jobs are not supported.
807 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
809 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
811 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
813 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
815 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
817 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
818 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
819 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
821 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
823 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
824 parallel jobs aren't supported.
826 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
828 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
830 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
832 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
833 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
834 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
836 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
837 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
838 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
839 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
841 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
842 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
843 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
844 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
845 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
847 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
848 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
850 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
852 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
853 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
855 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
857 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
858 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
861 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
863 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
864 in a target name (PR/1586).
866 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
868 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
869 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
871 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
873 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
874 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
875 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
877 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
878 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
879 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
881 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
882 instead of hardcoding 2.
883 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
884 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
886 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
888 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
889 are really directories.
891 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
893 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
894 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
897 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
899 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
900 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
901 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
903 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
905 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
906 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
907 intermediate possibilities.
909 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
911 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
912 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
913 to make sure they're handled serially.
915 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
917 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
918 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
920 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
921 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
923 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
925 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
926 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
929 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
931 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
932 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
934 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
936 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
937 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
939 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
941 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
942 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
943 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
944 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
946 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
948 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
949 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
950 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
951 as many "sleep" commands.
953 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
955 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
956 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
957 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
958 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
959 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
960 general, actually... where practical.
961 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
962 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
964 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
965 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
966 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
968 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
969 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
970 happens before the command line processing).
971 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
972 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
973 the VOS stuff here, too.
974 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
975 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
978 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
979 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
980 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
982 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
984 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
985 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
986 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
987 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
988 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
989 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
990 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
991 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
992 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
993 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
996 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
997 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
998 to force the order we want.
1000 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1001 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1002 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1003 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1005 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1006 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1007 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1008 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1009 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1011 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1013 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
1016 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1018 ChangeLog file for the test suite created.
