Here is the current ctest compare status of the examples as of revision 9180.
c++, f77, f95, java, python, and perl are now perfect except for the historical example 19 problems and the new example 31 issues which I plan to fix later today (Thursday). Here is the status of the rest of the languages. octave Missing examples : 19 Differing postscript output : 31 Missing stdout : 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 15 16 18 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 Differing stdout : tcl Missing examples : 19 31 Differing postscript output : 11 13 15 16 20 Missing stdout : Differing stdout : ada Missing examples : 31 Differing postscript output : 03 09 13 15 29 Missing stdout : Differing stdout : 23 ocaml Missing examples : Differing postscript output : 15 29 31 Missing stdout : Differing stdout : 31 I assume that Andrew will deal with the octave stdout issue. ndiff shows that tcl examples 11 and 20 differences with the corresponding C versions are just due to rounding, but it also shows that appears not to be the case with 09 13 and 15. (Those examples also show a modest file length difference with the corresponding C examples.) I hope Andrew will look at those three examples as well to reduce their differences just to rounding issues (as shown by ndiff). I am going to leave the Ada changes to Jerry because I just have too hard a time with that language and similarly I will leave the OCaml changes to Hez. In sum, that means the only examples responsibility I have left is the example 31 versions for all languages (other than Ada and OCaml), and I plan to finish off that responsibility later today (Thursday). But I must get some sleep first. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
