David, Exactly. Then I thought we could take this output, and use it to check new packages for release/branch compatibility. The output could be placed in a text file, and parsed by another script that is designed to test packages. This new script wouldn't run from a LEAF environment. Instead, it would use a development environment. A release/branch lead developer runs the environment test script on his/her release/branch. He then places the output files on our site. A package developer downloads the environment test script output files to a machine with the package test script. The package developer then tests his/her new package. $ lrp_pkg_tst.pl foo.lrp Testing foo.lrp ... file structure: OK program name: foo program version: 1.00 libc version: 2.1.3 Checking compatibility with Oxygen... Parsing 1.9 output: yes Parsing 1.8 output: yes Parsing Dec.2000 output: no Checking compatibility with Dachstein... Parsing 1.0.2 1680: no Parsing 1.0.2 CD: no I thought it was possible to determine the libc version used for compiling a package. The program name and version may require package developer intervention. After the new package is tested by the script, a text file is generated that can be included with the package, or kept separate. The output would provide information similar to your package repository .desc file. >Now if you could just generate this set of (command) requirements >(and option requirements) on the fly from a script.... That would be nice. :-) However, I don't think we'll see it any time soon, if ever. :-( -- Mike Noyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ http://leaf.sourceforge.net/content.php?menu=1000&page_id=4 _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
