There's something wrong with Doug's MY::test rewrite in the latest CVS (for
me, anyway).
We should be able to run:
perl Makefile.PL
make test
But if I try running 'dmake test' or 'nmake test' immediately after running
'perl Makefile.PL', it just goes straight into running the tests - the
nmake/dmake stage (that creates and populates the blib) is left out !! And
then, if I run something like 'perl t/inlinepdlpp.t', I get an error that
blib could not be found (even though there's no reason that the command I
ran needs to find blib).
Does anybody else get the same ?
I won't have a chance to take a decent look at this until Monday.
Chris, if you want to get a 02 out before that, then go for it - I don't
think the problem I'm seeing will have any bearing on CPAN-testers results.
We can sort out the details later. But it looks like I'll be rewriting
Doug's change as:
sub MY::test {
if($^O =~ /MSWin32/i) {
package MY; # so that "SUPER" works right
my $inherited = shift->SUPER::test(@_);
my @lines = split "\n", $inherited;
my @new = ();
my $pass = 1;
foreach (@lines) {
if ($pass) {
push @new, $_;
$pass = 0 if /^test\b/;
} else {
if (/^\s*$/) {
push @new, '';
$pass = 1;
}
}
}
return join("\n", @new,"\n");
}
else {
# This subroutine re-writes the 'test' section
# to get rid of 'pure_all' as a dependency for
# certain test targets. This causes 'make test' to
# re-run the entire 'make' target instead of just testing
# PDL.
#
# It also gets rid of the 'subdirs-test' section, which
# attempts to run tests in individual sub-directories.
# This is also causing a significant rebuild after the main
# test is done.
# D. Hunt 10/20/2008
# But Win32 really needs the original.
# Sisyphus 23/10/08
package MY; # so that "SUPER" works right
my $inherited = shift->SUPER::test(@_);
$inherited =~ s/pure_all//g;
$inherited =~ s/subdirs\-test$//mg;
return $inherited;
}
}
Either that, or settle for PDL being the only module on CPAN that requires
we run 'dmake'/'nmake' before 'dmake test'/'nmake test'.
Cheers,
Rob
