Right, this failure is specific to MinGW; it has been there since extra was introduced. > I'm also a bit surprised that we consider failures with the "extra" > part ok. The failure appears to be in the test suite itself; it is not invoking mtn properly. No one has had the time to investigate. I don't use any of the tools tested in extra (on any platform), and apparently no one has complained that they don't work on MinGW (either no one else uses them, or they do work). > Other than that, I agree that nvm.lua-5.2 should be merged into nvm. The test failure occurs on nvm as well, so no need to hold the merge on that account. -- -- Stephe ___ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel

'make check' now completed. tester and unit tests all pass. func tests had one failure; netsync_key_hooks didn't get the expected return value from the server when sent SIGTERM. I think this is a known bug in MinGW, so we should skip that test. All of the extra tests failed, as on the previous release. The failure is 'attempt to call global 'mtn_setup' (a nil value)', so there's something fundamental wrong in extra test driver. In sum; as far as Cygwin and MinGW are concerned, nvm.lua-5.2 can be merged to main. -- -- Stephe ___ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel

Completely reinstalling mingw, using an older installer that has g++ 4.5.2, fixed this particular problem (running 'make check' now). So apparently g++ 4.6.2 has problems with exceptions on Mingw.

The Lua interface was a red herring; it's C++ exceptions that are not working. To reproduce: cd nvm.lua-5.2-build_mingw ./mtn.exe --no-standard-rcfiles Should get a "no command" error, with usage; instead get: This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information. It's dying on monotone.cc:288 if (cmd_id.empty()) throw usage(commands::command_id()); This is compiled with mingw g++ 4.6.2; does that have problems? I'll see if I can get an older g++ for mingw.

I'm getting immediate failures from mtn int the nvm.lua-5.2 branch on Mingw; something to do with the Lua interface, possibly exception handling.
