Dejagnu

[Mark Mitchell]

Is there an easy way to teach dejagnu that some warnings are OK?  On
mips-sgi-irix6.4 every test that involves linking fails with something
like this:

  output is:
  ld32: WARNING 84: /pooma/mitchell/egcs/objdir/libraries//libstdc++/libstdc++.a \
  is not used for resolving any symbol.
  ld32: WARNING 84: /usr/lib32/libm.so is not used for resolving any symbol.
  FAIL: g++.brendan/code-gen1.C (test for excess errors)
  ld32: WARNING 84: /pooma/mitchell/egcs/objdir/libraries//libstdc++/libstdc++.a \
  is not used for resolving any symbol.
  ld32: WARNING 84: /usr/lib32/libm.so is not used for resolving any symbol.

The ever-so-helpful SGI linker wants to tell us this all the time, but
this causes many, many test failures.  I'm sure I can figure this out,
but if anyone knows the answer off-hand, I'd appreciate it.
 
Thanks,

See prune_warnings in dejagnu/lib/target.exp.  I don't actually know
that it is used for the egcs testsuite, but it may be, and it's the
right place to change anyhow.

Somewhere there's a "prune_system_crud" or similarly named funtion;
it's part of dejagnu if I remember correct 9as opposed to something
in the gcc/g++ testsuites).

I already sent this patch in to the dejagnu maintainers:

	 On mips-sgi-irix6.4 every test that involves linking fails with something
	like this:

	  ld32: WARNING 84: /pooma/mitchell/egcs/objdir/libraries//libstdc++/libstdc++.a \
	  is not used for resolving any symbol.

We could also try to fix this by telling the linker to shut up.  This can be
done by putting a -dont_warn_unused option before the -lstdc++ and a 
-warn_unused afterwards.  This requires having the cp/g++spec.c file emit
target dependent options though, and we currently have no support for this.

I made sure it got installed.  It was already half there as of two days ago,
and I added in the other half.

Thanks, Mike. I ended up using 1.4.3 for no other reason than that
it was the latest 'n' greatest.

1.4.0 should be ok, 1.4.1 I'd avoid.  I'd expect 1.4.3 to be fine.  The  
others, I'd just avoid at this point in general, though, they did work  
best before there was a 1.4.

Hello, list,

Is there any reason I should prefer Dejagnu a la
ftp://sources.redhat.com:/pub/gcc/infrastructure/dejagnu-20010126.tar.gz
to ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/dejagnu/dejagnu-20000518.tar.bz2 or 
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/dejagnu-1.4.3.tar.gz on the GNU mothership?
I'd like to start tracking down XFAILs...  

Thanks,

Kurt

Sorry, guys. Anyway I've found dejagnu-1.4.0 and it seems to pass all its
tests so am using it, now to get GCC 3.0 build underway on sparc32.

Shouldn't this be asked in a dejagnu or tcl mailing list? :-)

Should be. Check a sourceware mirror.

Re: DejaGnu

[Richard Stallman]

I will talk with the maintainer and take steps one way or another
to get things moving.

DejaGnu

[Gerald Pfeifer]

I am currently revamping the documentation of the GCC testsuites a bit and
realized that dejagnu-1.3.tar.gz has been released on February 15th, 1996,
which is close to five (sic!) years ago.

Because of that we have to recommend (and provide) snapshots of DejaGnu.

This is hardly acceptable, especially long term.

So, what can we do? A simple first step would be making the latest
snapshot a release and putting it on the GNU FTP servers. (In fact
it seems that Debian, for example, is already using that snapshot.)

Also, the GNU project should try to find an active maintainer for DejaGnu.

dejagnu

['David Scott Urban]

Although this is not directly related to gcc, I wasn't sure where to ask questions about this app.

The sourceware archives contain a directory for dejagnu but they have not been 
updated in a long time. 

Is there a newsgroup or mailing list associated with dejagnu? Who is the current 
maintainer, if any? Is there a homepage on the web or a place on the web to get 
the current version?

The reason I am asking is that I would like to update dejagnu to use the latest 
expect and tcl. But, I am running into problems with the testing on a HP running 
HP-UX 10.20. Also, I am having problems compiling on a Solaris box running 2.5.1 
or 2.6 with the call to setpgrp.

Thanks for you time and any help you can give me.
