------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jan 16 13:00:04 -0800 2007 ------- Pasting from 68929 (posted there in error): In fact unit tests have been written, and (as expected since the patch is remarkably simple) pass with no problems. [ sent by private mail to Stefan ]. The problem is that they use some ancient, ugly (but actually functional) unit testing framework [ as opposed, to the new, trendy, (undocumented), and (apparently) non-functional-out-of-the-box new unit testing framework ]. Thankfully someone kindly sent me the non-public docs on writing C++ unit tests and I need to dive into this morass and work out why there is such compound brokenness here; first to get the unit testing framework actually working for me, and then (of course) to re-write the tests to use it. But as yet I have not found the time or inclination. Why, oh why - can I not just type "$ build test" or better "$ test" and get a simple yes/no answer that works reliably, requires no extra installation / download / build / documentation foo, and which I can extend easily ? The casual writing of unit testage is drastically impeeded by the mess here :-) Anyhow - it's good to vent some spleen; it's a curious decision not to take the change IMHO, it's obviously correct and saves a noticable chunk of memory. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
