Wow. I never found that before. Ehe, how do you use/invoke it? I tried setting JAVA/JAVAC/GCJ as variables before invoking foo, but in all cases it fails in weird and wonderful ways either compiling or running. One issue seems to be that it does want the gnu/testlet/*.java files, but this is never specified in its classpath or sourcepath. > > Is it documented? >=20 > Yeah, right. :) I admit to be guilty of not documenting my batch_run and runner script. But a little blurb in the README wouldn't hurt. If I promise to add something about my scripts, could you add something about yours? At least how to invoke the thing... > > Might it be a good idea to add these tests to a separate module > > like the visual tester and the verifier tests since they are > > actually different from the rest of the mauve core library tests? >=20 > Can you please be a little more specific about this? Since it seem to not be integrated with the rest of the tests (but I might be wrong about this since I couldn't get them working at all) it might make sense to but it into their own module. Like the verifier tests and the visual test engine (CVS modules verify and wonka). It seems this binary compatibility test is useful on its own without any dependency on the core library tests so we might want to promote it to its own CVS module that people can just use without worrying about all the rest. And it would add a new bullet point on the website which makes the project seem more alive :) Cheers, Mark --=-sQLGpYssrHMWNH8bFTXv Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-length: 189 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBAf8N9xVhZCJWr9QwRAkTZAJ9/5VJly3np07a5kJu8LViNdhjYTQCdHBce TGw6p8rNpuUmoGyra5T5B3s= =sqTn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-sQLGpYssrHMWNH8bFTXv--
