Hmmm, when we use todo_wine the test itself, i.e. the ok() statement, is still failing. It's just that it's in a block where we expect failures and complain about successes. Bah, ok, my previous message was not clear<g>. But I still consider these tests to be primarily conformance tests because that's much more useful than tests that verify that we preserve the old bugs. Fortunately with the todo_wine mechanism they are also pretty useful for regression testing. -- Francois Gouget [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://fgouget.free.fr/ Linux: the choice of a GNU generation
