I get failures in the testsuite, both on linux and windows. Does it go
through for you?
Regarding Windows, I fixed a couple bugs yesterday in debug_fd_stat
which caused file_stat etc to fail spectacularly on most non-local
filesystems. I wonder how it has worked earlier..
After that it gets through. My compilation environment provides the
following:
features:
dynamic loading..... yes
threads............. yes (nt)
signal handler...... custom NT
cdebug.............. yes
rtldebug............ no
dmalloc............. no
dlmalloc............ yes
mmx................. no (no mmx.h found)
byte code format.... ia32
module reloc........ no
use machine code.... yes
int type............ long (4 bytes)
float type.......... float (4 bytes) (ieee little endian)
pointer size........ 4 bytes
svalue size......... 8 bytes (2+2+4)
Bz2................. yes (using libbz2)
DNS-SD.............. no (dns_sd.h or howl.h not found)
DVB................. no (dependencies failed)
FFmpeg.............. no (dependencies failed)
Fuse................ no (dependencies failed)
GLUT................ no (dependencies failed)
GSSAPI.............. yes (-lgssapi32)
GTK................. no (dependencies failed)
GTK.GlArea.......... no (dependencies failed)
GTK.GladeXML........ no (dependencies failed)
GTK2................ yes
Gdbm................ no (dependencies failed)
Gmp (bignums)....... yes (using libgmp)
Gz.................. yes (libzlib)
Image............... yes
Image.FreeType...... yes
Image.GIF........... yes
Image.JPEG.......... yes
Image.SVG........... no (dependencies failed)
Image.TIFF.......... yes
Image.TTF........... no (dependencies failed)
Image.XFace......... yes
Java................ yes (-lkernel32 -lws2_32 -ladvapi32)
Kerberos............ yes (-lkrb5_32)
MIME................ yes
Math................ yes
Math.Transforms.FFT. no (fftw.h not found)
Mysql............... yes (liblibmysql)
Nettle.............. yes
Odbc................ no (dependencies failed)
Oracle.............. no (dependencies failed)
PDF.PDFlib.......... no (dependencies failed)
PDF.Panda........... no (dependencies failed)
Postgres............ yes
Regexp.PCRE......... yes (libpcre)
SDL................. no (dependencies failed)
SDL_mixer........... no (dependencies failed)
SQLite.............. yes
ZXID................ no (dependencies failed)
sybase.............. no (dependencies failed)
Is this good enough? Is there something that can/should be improved?
As for the testsuite on windows, things aren't that good. Besides the
errors I also get on linux:
1. The socket and sendfile tests fail randomly with errors like
This file does not support nonblocking operation.
-:1: Fd(10)->set_nonblocking()
-:1: Stdio.File("conftest.dst", "cwt", 666 /* fd=10 */)->set_nonblocking()
l:/mast-home/Pike/stable/lib/modules/Stdio.pmod/module.pmod:1442:
Stdio.File("conftest.dst", "cwt", 666 /* fd=10
*/)->set_nonblocking(0,0,0,UNDEFINED,UNDEFINED)
l:/mast-home/Pike/stable/lib/modules/Stdio.pmod/module.pmod:3041:
Stdio.Sendfile()->writer_done()
l:/mast-home/Pike/stable/lib/modules/Stdio.pmod/module.pmod:2930:
Stdio.Sendfile()->reader_done()
l:/mast-home/Pike/stable/lib/modules/Stdio.pmod/module.pmod:2946:
Stdio.Sendfile()->close_cb(0)
-:1: Pike.Backend(0)->`()(3600.0)
2. Stdio.File.pipe tend to return zero in random tests.
3. Process.create_process randomly fails to spawn sub-pikes in tests.
4. Tools.Standalone.forkd doesn't compile due to missing
Process.ForkdDecoder, and that causes some tests to fail. Would there be
a problem if this is fixed by a this_program_does_not_exist stanza in
forkd.pike?
Unfortunately I can't promise any significant time tracking those random
errors down right now. :\
