Travis Vitek updated STDCXX-536: -------------------------------- Attachment: (was: stdcxx-536.patch) > allow thread safety tests to time out without failing > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: STDCXX-536 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-536 > Project: C++ Standard Library > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Tests > Affects Versions: trunk > Reporter: Martin Sebor > Assignee: Travis Vitek > Fix For: 4.2 > > > The newly added thread safety tests (and possibly some of the existing ones) > tend to run for a long time, consuming a lot of CPU cycles, and sometimes > even failing due to a timeout (currently 300 seconds in nightly builds). It > would be useful to provide a mechanism such as a command line option whereby > the tests' runtime could be limited without necessarily causing them to fail > when the amount of time is exceeded. One way to do it would be for each test > to set an alarm in response to this command line option and in handler for > the alarm set a flag that each thread would check at each iteration of its > loop to see if it should break. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
