             Bug #: 54711
           Summary: Fix --target_board examples on test.html page
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.8.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: web
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: sje@gcc.gnu.org


>From http://gcc.gnu.org/install/test.html


You can run the testsuites multiple times using combinations of options with a
syntax similar to the brace expansion of popular shells:

     ..."--target_board=arm-sim\{-mhard-float,-msoft-float\}\{-O1,-O2,-O3,\}"

(Note the empty option caused by the trailing comma in the final group.) The
following will run each testsuite eight times using the `arm-sim' target, as if
you had specified all possible combinations yourself:

     --target_board=arm-sim/-mhard-float/-O1
     --target_board=arm-sim/-mhard-float/-O2
     --target_board=arm-sim/-mhard-float/-O3
     --target_board=arm-sim/-mhard-float
     --target_board=arm-sim/-msoft-float/-O1
     --target_board=arm-sim/-msoft-float/-O2
     --target_board=arm-sim/-msoft-float/-O3
     --target_board=arm-sim/-msoft-float



If you run 'runtest' with multiple --target_board options only the last one
will get run.  The list should show:

     --target_board='arm-sim/-mhard-float/-O1 \
                     arm-sim/-mhard-float/-O2 \
                     arm-sim/-mhard-float/-O3 \
                     arm-sim/-mhard-float \
                     arm-sim/-msoft-float/-O1 \
                     arm-sim/-msoft-float/-O2 \
                     arm-sim/-msoft-float/-O3 \
                     arm-sim/-msoft-float'

I.e. a single --target_board option with multiple space separated board names.
That is the equivelant of the initial target_board list that uses the braces.

RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=unix/\{-m32,\}"

works for me as well.  You say the elaborated list needs fixing?  Care to
fix it yourself?

Weird, IIRC instructions used to be on the write-access page.

They are on the cvs.html page:
http://gcc.gnu.org/cvs.html

I don't know if they are linked from anywhere though.

OK, I can check out wwwdocs but the page I am interested in doesn't seem to be
there.  On the web it is http://gcc.gnu.org/install/test.html, but I can't seem
to find this page in a checked out version of wwwdocs.  I did get an
htdocs/install directory but it does not include any files (other than CVS and
.cvsignore).

That is generated from gcc/docs/install.texi in svn.

This has been resolved now with the patch to install.texi.

I addressed comments 3-6 concerning our web pages / documentation
via the following two changes

  http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2012-12/msg01470.html
  http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2012-12/msg01468.html

and will be adding more over the next two weeks.
