1 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
3 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
4 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
6 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
8 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
9 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
12 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
14 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
15 expect a warning message from Make.
17 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
19 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
20 jobs are not supported.
22 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
24 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
26 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
28 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
30 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
32 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
33 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
34 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
36 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
38 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
39 parallel jobs aren't supported.
41 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
43 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
45 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
47 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
48 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
49 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
51 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
52 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
53 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
54 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
56 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
57 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
58 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
59 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
60 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
62 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
63 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
65 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
67 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
68 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
70 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
72 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
73 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
76 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
78 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
79 in a target name (PR/1586).
81 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
83 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
84 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
86 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
88 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
89 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
90 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
92 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
93 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
94 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
96 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
97 instead of hardcoding 2.
98 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
99 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
101 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
103 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
104 are really directories.
106 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
108 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
109 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
112 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
114 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
115 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
116 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
118 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
120 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
121 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
122 intermediate possibilities.
124 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
126 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
127 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
128 to make sure they're handled serially.
130 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
132 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
133 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
135 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
136 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
138 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
140 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
141 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
144 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
146 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
147 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
149 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
151 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
152 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
154 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
156 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
157 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
158 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
159 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
161 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
163 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
164 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
165 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
166 as many "sleep" commands.
168 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
170 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
171 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
172 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
173 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
174 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
175 general, actually... where practical.
176 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
177 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
179 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
180 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
181 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
183 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
184 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
185 happens before the command line processing).
186 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
187 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
188 the VOS stuff here, too.
189 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
190 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
193 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
194 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
195 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
197 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
199 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
200 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
201 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
202 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
203 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
204 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
205 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
206 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
207 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
208 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
211 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
212 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
213 to force the order we want.
215 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
216 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
217 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
218 the environment rather than require specific versions.
220 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
221 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
222 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
223 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
224 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
226 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
228 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
