I think you should start by reading the J2SDK 1.4 javadoc carefully, in conjunction with older JDK javadocs and other Sun sources. Then build your tests according to the spec. If you look at the ClassPath implementation, only use it to look for ideas on what to test. Don't use it to find out how the method ought to behave. If it is unclear from the JDK javadoc how a particular method ought to behave, run your test case code against some Sun implementations. Ultimately, the aim is for 100% (bug for bug) compatibility with the relevant Sun implementations. The behaviour of the Sun implementations are definitive. > 2) if the function is depreciated, should I build test for it? Given that people's code often relies on deprecated methods, yes. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Classpath mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath
