7 * scripts/variables/private: Create a new suite of tests for 'private'.
9 2007-11-04 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
11 * scripts/functions/eval: Update error message for command -> recipe.
13 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,
15 * scripts/misc/close_stdout: Use a regex for the answer, since
16 sometimes the error will have a description and sometimes it won't.
18 2007-09-10 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
20 * scripts/variables/special: Add tests for .RECIPEPREFIX variable.
22 2007-08-15 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
24 These test cases were contributed by

26 Savannah bugs #3330 and #15919.
28 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Add tests for Savannah bugs 3330 and
31 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add tests for wrong answer/hang
32 combining INTERMEDIATE, order-only prereqs, and parallelism.
33 See Savannah bugs 3330 and 15919.
35 2007-07-13 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
37 Install a timeout so tests can never loop infinitely.
38 Original idea and patch for a single-test version provided by
39 Icarus Sparry <savannah@icarus.freeuk.com>
41 * test_driver.pl (_run_command): New function: this is called by
42 other functions to actually run a command. Before we run it,
43 install a SIGALRM handler and set up a timer to go off in the
44 future (default is 5s; this can be overridden by individual tests).
45 (run_command): Call it.
46 (run_command_with_output): Call it.
48 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_with_options): Override the default
49 timeout if the caller requests it.
50 (run_make_test): Pass any timeout override to run_make_with_options.
52 * scripts/features/parallelism: Increase the timeout for long tests.
53 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
55 2006-10-01 Paul Smith <psmith@paulandlesley.org>

64 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add back the test for bug #8154.
66 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
68 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple
69 initial slashes on Windows: those paths mean something different.
71 2006-03-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
73 * scripts/features/parallelism: Test that the jobserver is
74 properly managed when we have to re-exec the master instance of

79 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Add tests for bug #16053.
81 2006-03-09 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
83 * scripts/features/escape: Use "pre:" not "p:" to avoid conflicts
84 with DOS drive letters. Fixes Savannah bug #15947.
86 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): Set the status properly even
87 when a test fails to execute. Fixes Savannah bug #15942.
89 * scripts/functions/foreach: Use a different environment variable
90 other than PATH to avoid differences with Windows platforms.
91 Fixes Savannah bug #15938.
93 2006-03-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
95 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Add CYGWIN_NT as a port
96 type W32. Fixed Savannah bug #15937.
98 * scripts/features/default_names: Don't call error() when the test
99 fails. Fixes Savannah bug #15941.
101 2006-02-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
103 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test a complex construction which
104 guarantees that we have to merge variable lists of different
105 sizes. Tests for Savannah bug #15757.
107 2006-02-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
109 * scripts/functions/error: Make sure filename/lineno information
110 is related to where the error is expanded, not where it's set.

143 2005-12-12 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
145 * scripts/features/parallelism, scripts/functions/wildcard,
146 scripts/targets/FORCE, scripts/targets/PHONY,
147 scripts/targets/SILENT: Use the default setting for
148 $delete_command. Fixes bug #15085.
150 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd) [VMS]: Use -no_ask with delete_file.
152 2005-12-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

177 * scripts/misc/general4: Test '$$' in prerequisites list.
178 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Rewrite to use run_make_test().
179 Add various static pattern info.
180 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Enable .SECONDEXPANSION target.
181 * scripts/features/se_explicit: Add tests for handling '$$' in
182 prerequisite lists with and without setting .SECONDEXPANSION.
183 * scripts/features/order_only: Convert to run_make_test().
184 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): If we can't get the value
185 of $(MAKE) from make, then fatal immediately.
187 2005-08-31 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
189 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
190 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
191 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the
192 previous methods. This tries to be more accurate on Windows
195 2005-08-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
197 * scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
198 to get a better idea of what's wrong. Make warnings instead of
201 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Don't use "test", which is
202 UNIX specific. Print the values and let the test script match
205 2005-08-25 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
207 * scripts/variables/SHELL: Use a /./ prefix instead of //: the
208 former works better with non-UNIX environments. Fixes Savannah
211 2005-08-13 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
213 * scripts/functions/wildcard: Wrap calls to $(wildcard ) with
214 $(sort) so that the resulting order is no longer filesystem-

224 Michael Matz (matz@suse.de) in which make exits without waiting
225 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
227 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
229 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
230 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
231 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some
232 variables are leaking out beyond the tests they are intended for.
233 Create an %extraENV hash tests can set to add more env. vars.
234 * tests/scripts/features/export: Change to use %extraENV.
235 * tests/scripts/functions/eval: Ditto.

245 subsecond timestamps.
246 * scripts/features/patternrules: False exits with different error
247 codes on different systems (for example, Linux => 1, Solaris => 255).
249 * scripts/options/dash-W: Set the timestamp to foo.x in the future,
250 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
252 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
254 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.
256 2005-06-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
258 * scripts/features/include: Test include/-include/sinclude with no
259 arguments. Tests fix for Savannah bug #1761.

275 Tests fix for Savannah bug #7566.
276 * scripts/options/dash-W: New file: test the -W flag, including
277 re-exec infinite looping.
279 2005-06-12 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
281 * scripts/misc/close_stdout: Add a test for Savannah bug #1328.
282 This test only works on systems that have /dev/full (e.g., Linux).

286 * scripts/functions/foreach: Add a test for Savannah bug #11913.
288 2005-05-31 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
290 * scripts/features/include: Add a test for Savannah bug #13216.

300 * scripts/variables/DEFAULT_GOAL: Rename DEFAULT_TARGET to
303 2005-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
305 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a test for exporting recursive
306 variables containing $(shell ) calls. Rewrite this script to use

351 * scripts/options/symlinks: New file to test checking of symlink
352 timestamps. Can't use filename dash-L because it conflicts with
353 dash-l on case-insensitive filesystems.
355 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST, scripts/variables/MFILE_LIST:
356 Rename MAKEFILE_LIST test to MFILE_LIST, for systems that need 8.3

377 2005-02-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
379 * scripts/functions/eval: Check that eval of targets within
380 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
382 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
384 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
385 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
386 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
388 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
390 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
391 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.

401 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
403 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
404 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
406 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
407 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
409 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
411 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
413 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>

442 prerequisite evaluation code.
444 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
446 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
447 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
448 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
450 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
451 interacting with define/endef variables.
453 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
455 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
456 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
457 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
459 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
461 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
462 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of

511 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
513 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and

528 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
529 with no commands (Bug #1418).
531 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
533 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
534 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).

544 characters in targets and prerequisites.
546 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
548 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
549 variables in a single command.
551 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
553 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
554 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
555 double-colon targets.
557 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
559 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
562 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
563 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
565 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
566 in ifdef conditionals.
568 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
570 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
572 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
573 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
574 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
575 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
576 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
578 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
579 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
581 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
582 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
583 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
585 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
587 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
589 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end

603 -valgrind option to the test suite.
604 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
605 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
606 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
607 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
609 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
611 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
614 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
615 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
616 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
617 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
618 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
620 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
622 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
624 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
626 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
628 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
630 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
631 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
632 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
634 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
636 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
637 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
639 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
641 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
642 directories in the script directories.
644 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
646 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
647 one of the command lines is quiet.
649 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
651 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
654 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
656 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
657 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
659 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
661 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
662 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
665 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
667 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
668 expect a warning message from Make.
670 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
672 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
673 jobs are not supported.
675 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
677 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
679 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
681 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
683 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
685 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
686 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
687 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
689 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
691 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
692 parallel jobs aren't supported.
694 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
696 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
698 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
700 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
701 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
702 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
704 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
705 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
706 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
707 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
709 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
710 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
711 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
712 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
713 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
715 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
716 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
718 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
720 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
721 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
723 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
725 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
726 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
729 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
731 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
732 in a target name (PR/1586).
734 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
736 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
737 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
739 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
741 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
742 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
743 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
745 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
746 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
747 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
749 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
750 instead of hardcoding 2.
751 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
752 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
754 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
756 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
757 are really directories.
759 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
761 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
762 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
765 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
767 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
768 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
769 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
771 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
773 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
774 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
775 intermediate possibilities.
777 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
779 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
780 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
781 to make sure they're handled serially.
783 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
785 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
786 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
788 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
789 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
791 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
793 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
794 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
797 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
799 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
800 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
802 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
804 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
805 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
807 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
809 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
810 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
811 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
812 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
814 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
816 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
817 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
818 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
819 as many "sleep" commands.
821 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
823 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
824 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
825 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
826 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
827 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
828 general, actually... where practical.
829 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
830 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
832 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
833 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
834 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
836 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
837 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
838 happens before the command line processing).
839 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
840 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
841 the VOS stuff here, too.
842 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
843 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
846 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
847 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
848 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
850 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
852 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
853 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
854 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
855 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
856 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
857 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
858 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
859 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
860 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
861 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
864 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
865 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
866 to force the order we want.
868 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
869 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
870 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
871 the environment rather than require specific versions.
873 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
874 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
875 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
876 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
877 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
879 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
881 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
