12006-04-01  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
2
3	* scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

1222005-08-31  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
123
124	* run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
125	an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
126	find the working directory.  If it doesn't exist, go back to the
127	previous methods.  This tries to be more accurate on Windows
128	systems.
129
1302005-08-29  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
131
132	* scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
133	to get a better idea of what's wrong.  Make warnings instead of
134	errors.
135
136	* scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Don't use "test", which is
137	UNIX specific.  Print the values and let the test script match
138	them.
139
1402005-08-25  Paul Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
141
142	* scripts/variables/SHELL: Use a /./ prefix instead of //: the
143	former works better with non-UNIX environments.  Fixes Savannah
144	bug #14129.
145
1462005-08-13  Boris Kolpackov  <boris@kolpackov.net>
147
148	* scripts/functions/wildcard: Wrap calls to $(wildcard ) with

153
154	* scripts/features/statipattrules: Add a test for Savannah bug #13881.

159	Michael Matz (matz@suse.de) in which make exits without waiting
160	for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
161
1622005-07-08  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
163
164	* test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
165	time before we invoke make.  I'm suspicious that the environment
166	isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some
167	variables are leaking out beyond the tests they are intended for.
168	Create an %extraENV hash tests can set to add more env. vars.
169	* tests/scripts/features/export: Change to use %extraENV.
170	* tests/scripts/functions/eval: Ditto.

178	files.
179	* scripts/features/reinvoke: Rewrite to be safer on systems with
180	subsecond timestamps.
181	* scripts/features/patternrules: False exits with different error
182	codes on different systems (for example, Linux => 1, Solaris => 255).
183
184	* scripts/options/dash-W: Set the timestamp to foo.x in the future,
185	to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
186
1872005-06-26  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
188
189	* scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.

194	arguments.  Tests fix for Savannah bug #1761.

200
201	* scripts/options/symlinks: Test symlinks to non-existent files.

215
216	* scripts/misc/close_stdout: Add a test for Savannah bug #1328.
217	This test only works on systems that have /dev/full (e.g., Linux).
218

220
221        * scripts/functions/foreach: Add a test for Savannah bug #11913.

4922002-09-10  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
493
494	* test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
495	skew error messages.
496
497	* scripts/features/export: Created.  Add tests for export/unexport
498	capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
499
500	* scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
501	in ifdef conditionals.
502
5032002-09-04  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
504
505	* scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
506	invocations.
507	* scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
508	* scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
509	* scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
510	* scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
511	* scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
512
513	* scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
514	Henning Makholm.  This test was also contributed by Henning.
515
516	* scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
517	features of make.  First test: make sure creation subdirectories
518	as prerequisites of targets works properly.
519
520	* scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
521
5222002-08-07  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
523
524	* scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
525	in newlines.
526
527	* scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
528	variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS).  Comment out .TARGETS test
529	for now as it's not yet supported.
530
5312002-08-01  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
532
533	* scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
534
5352002-07-11  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
536
537	* run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind.  Use
538	-valgrind option to the test suite.
539	(set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
540	Valgrind output.  We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
541	hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
542	this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
543
5442002-07-10  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
545
546	* scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
547	$$(@F).
548
549	* test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
550	file with a specific timestamp offset.  Use of this function will
551	let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
552	just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
553	lot faster.  So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
554
5552002-07-09  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
556
557	* scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
558
5592002-07-08  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
560
561	* scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
562
5632002-07-07  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
564
565	* scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
566	* scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
567	* scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
568
5692002-04-28  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
570
571	* scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
572	implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
573
5742002-04-21  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
575
576	* test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
577	directories in the script directories.
578
5792001-05-02  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
580
581	* scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
582	one of the command lines is quiet.
583
5842000-06-22  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
585
586	* scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option.  Includes
587	a test for PR/1780.
588
5892000-06-21  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
590
591	* scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
592	semicolons in target-specific variable values.
593
5942000-06-19  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
595
596	* scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
597	Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
598	one was handy.
599
6002000-06-17  Eli Zaretskii  <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
601
602	* scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
603	expect a warning message from Make.
604
6052000-06-15  Eli Zaretskii  <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
606
607	* scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
608	jobs are not supported.
609
6102000-05-24  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
611
612	* scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
613
6142000-04-11  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
615
616	* scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
617
6182000-04-08  Eli Zaretskii  <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
619
620	* scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
621	files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
622	newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
623
6242000-04-07  Eli Zaretskii  <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
625
626	* scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
627	parallel jobs aren't supported.
628
6292000-04-04  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
630
631	* scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
632
6332000-03-27  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
634
635	* scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
636	whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
637	error (instead of dumping core).  Fixes PR/1670.
638
639	* scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
640	first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
641	Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
642	* scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
643
644	* scripts/functions/call: Whoops.  The fix to PR/1527 caused
645	recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break.  I can't come up
646	with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
647	the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls.  This
648	also tests the fix for PR/1610.
649
650	* scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
651	in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
652
6532000-03-26  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
654
655	* scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
656	.INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
657
6582000-03-08  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
659
660	* scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
661	multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
662	For PR/1634.
663
6642000-02-07  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
665
666	* scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
667	in a target name (PR/1586).
668
6692000-02-04  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
670
671	* scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
672	target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
673
6742000-02-02  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
675
676	* run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
677	to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
678	Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
679
680	* run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
681	depending on the OS.  Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
682	this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2.  Keep it
683	1 for other systems.
684	* scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
685	instead of hardcoding 2.
686	* scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
687	* scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
688
6892000-01-27  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
690
691	* test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
692	are really directories.
693
6942000-01-23  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
695
696	* scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
697	problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
698	it.
699
7002000-01-11  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
701
702	* scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
703	sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
704	invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
705
7061999-12-15  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
707
708	* scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
709	.INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
710	intermediate possibilities.
711
7121999-12-01  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
713
714	* scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
715	double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
716	to make sure they're handled serially.
717
7181999-11-17  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
719
720	* scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
721	after an if-statement to make sure it works.
722
723	* scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
724	in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
725
7261999-10-15  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
727
728	* scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
729	test anything at all, really.  Rewrote it, plus added a test for
730	PR/1394.
731
7321999-10-13  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
733
734	* scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
735	behave properly when used with recursive targets".
736
7371999-10-08  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
738
739	* scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
740	"Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
741
7421999-09-29  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
743
744	* test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
745	$short_filenames and reverse the logic.
746	(run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
747	$short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
748
7491999-09-23  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
750
751	* scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
752	jobserver works when we re-invoke.  Also cleaned up the tests a
753	little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
754	as many "sleep" commands.
755
7561999-09-16  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
757
758	* scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
759	makefiles.  See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
760	Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
761	exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time.  We don't want
762	this.  This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
763	general, actually... where practical.
764	* scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
765	* scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
766
767	* test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
768	.lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS.  So, for non-DOS systems I
769	changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
770
771	* run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
772	make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
773	happens before the command line processing).
774	Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
775	specify what kind of system we're running on.  We should integrate
776	the VOS stuff here, too.
777	(valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
778	won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
779	this, though!
780
781	* scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
782	* scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
783	* scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
784
7851999-09-15  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
786
787	* test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function.  Previously it
788	used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
789	local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
790	This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
791	on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
792	the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
793	time based on the _server's_ clock.  Hard-setting it based on the
794	_local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
795	unreliable except on local filesystems.  The new function will
796	simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
797	time as it sees fit.
798
799	* scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
800	change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
801	to force the order we want.
802
803	* test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
804	means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing.  This worked
805	in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
806	the environment rather than require specific versions.
807
808	* run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
809	modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
810	(set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
811	option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
812	(setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
813
8141999-09-15  Eli Zaretskii  <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
815
816	* scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
817	test makefile.
818
8191999-09-15  Paul D. Smith  <psmith@gnu.org>
820
821	ChangeLog file for the test suite created.
