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

477 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
479 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
480 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment

627 2005-02-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
629 * scripts/functions/eval: Check that eval of targets within
630 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
632 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
634 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
635 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
636 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
638 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
640 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
641 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
643 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
645 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
648 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
651 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
653 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
654 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
656 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
657 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
659 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
661 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
663 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
665 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
668 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
670 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
671 when rebuilding makefiles.
673 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
675 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
677 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
679 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
680 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
682 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
684 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
686 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
688 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
689 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
691 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
692 prerequisite evaluation code.
694 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
696 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
697 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
698 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
700 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
701 interacting with define/endef variables.
703 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
705 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
706 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
707 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
709 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
711 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
712 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
713 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
715 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
717 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
718 rather than relying on $HOME.
720 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
722 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
723 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
726 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
728 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
729 pattern rules (patch #2349).
731 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
733 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
734 whitespace--bug #5798.
736 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
738 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
740 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
741 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
743 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
745 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
746 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
749 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
751 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
752 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
754 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
756 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
757 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
758 length). Tests patch # 1022.
760 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
761 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
763 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
764 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
766 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
768 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
771 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
773 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
774 conditionals (Bug #1516).
776 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
778 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
779 with no commands (Bug #1418).
781 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
783 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
784 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
786 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
788 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
791 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
793 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
794 characters in targets and prerequisites.
796 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
798 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
799 variables in a single command.
801 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
803 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
804 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
805 double-colon targets.
807 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
809 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
812 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
813 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
815 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
816 in ifdef conditionals.
818 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
820 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
822 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
823 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
824 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
825 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
826 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
828 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
829 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
831 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
832 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
833 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
835 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
837 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
839 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
842 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
843 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
844 for now as it's not yet supported.
846 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
848 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
850 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
852 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
853 -valgrind option to the test suite.
854 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
855 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
856 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
857 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
859 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
861 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
864 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
865 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
866 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
867 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
868 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
870 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
872 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
874 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
876 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
878 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
880 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
881 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
882 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
884 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
886 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
887 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
889 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
891 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
892 directories in the script directories.
894 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
896 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
897 one of the command lines is quiet.
899 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
901 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
904 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
906 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
907 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
909 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
911 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
912 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
915 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
917 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
918 expect a warning message from Make.
920 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
922 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
923 jobs are not supported.
925 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
927 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
929 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
931 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
933 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
935 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
936 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
937 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
939 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
941 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
942 parallel jobs aren't supported.
944 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
946 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
948 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
950 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
951 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
952 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
954 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
955 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
956 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
957 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
959 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
960 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
961 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
962 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
963 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
965 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
966 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
968 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
970 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
971 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
973 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
975 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
976 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
979 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
981 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
982 in a target name (PR/1586).
984 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
986 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
987 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
989 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
991 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
992 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
993 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
995 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
996 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
997 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
999 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
1000 instead of hardcoding 2.
1001 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
1002 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
1004 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1006 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
1007 are really directories.
1009 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1011 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
1012 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
1015 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1017 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
1018 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
1019 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
1021 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1023 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
1024 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
1025 intermediate possibilities.
1027 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1029 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1030 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1031 to make sure they're handled serially.
1033 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1035 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1036 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1038 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1039 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1041 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1043 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1044 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1047 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1049 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1050 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1052 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1054 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1055 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1057 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1059 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1060 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1061 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1062 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1064 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1066 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1067 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1068 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1069 as many "sleep" commands.
1071 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1073 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1074 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1075 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1076 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1077 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1078 general, actually... where practical.
1079 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1080 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1082 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1083 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1084 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1086 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1087 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1088 happens before the command line processing).
1089 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1090 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1091 the VOS stuff here, too.
1092 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1093 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1096 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1097 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1098 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1100 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1102 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1103 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1104 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1105 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1106 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1107 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1108 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1109 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1110 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1111 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1112 time as it sees fit.
1114 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1115 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1116 to force the order we want.
1118 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1119 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1120 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1121 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1123 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1124 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1125 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1126 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1127 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1129 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1131 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
1134 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
