3 testsuite: be more cross-compile friendly
4 * tests/defs.in (cross_compiling): New subroutine.
5 (am__tool_prefix): New internal variable.

10 2011-05-07 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
12 tests: fix spurious failure of txinfo21.test on FreeBSD
13 * tests/txinfo21.test: Use the `is_newest' subroutine instead of
14 the `ls -t' hack to to determine whether a file has been updated.
15 This is required because at least FreeBSD `ls' do not sort files
16 with the same timestamp in alphabetical order when using the `-t'

21 tests defs: allow requirements for compilers (mostly dummy)
22 Most of the new requirements that are now accepted in `$required'
23 as consequence of this patch are still dummy. They are planned
24 to be implemented only in master (or in some derived branch), but
25 having them here (even just as no-op) will allow for an easier
26 integration/backporting of potential new testcases.
27 * tests/defs.in (cc, c++, fortran, fortran77): New requirements,
29 (flex): New requirement, picking LEX for configure.
30 (lex): New requirement, alias for `flex'. A more appropriate
31 implementation, looking for a generic `lex' program, will follow
33 (yacc): New requirement, alias for `bison'. A more appropriate
34 implementation, looking for a generic `yacc' program, will follow

39 tests: fix spurious failure in a test on TESTS (VPATH-related)
40 * tests/check-tests-in-builddir.test: When not using the
41 parallel-tests option, do not check that VPATH components are
42 not present in the displayed test name, since the simple-tests
43 driver do not try to strip them.

67 as `maintclean.test', not as `maintclean-vpath.test'.
69 2011-04-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
71 tests: remove redundant test `mclean.test'
72 * tests/mclean.test: Remove, it's a weak grepping test completely
73 superseded by the much more complete `maintclean.test'.

76 2011-04-22 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
78 testsuite: more environment sanitization

106 depcomp tests: don't reject slower dependency extractors
107 * tests/depcomp8b.test: Add the `--enable-dependency-tracking'
108 option to `configure' invocations, so that slower dependency
109 extractors are not rejected.
110 * tests/depcomp8a.test: Likewise. Also ...
111 (foo.c): ... since we are at it, fix spacing to be consistent
112 with GNU coding standards.

130 depcomp: correct invalid sed invocation
131 * lib/depcomp: Insert missing -e before '/:$/d'.
132 Otherwise, that use of sed would treat '/:$/d' as a file name.

159 depcomp: fix bugs in tests and in the depcomp script
160 * lib/depcomp (gcc): Remove duplicated `-e' from sed invocation.
161 * tests/depcomp10.test: Make it executable. Fix a blunder that
162 has left part of an intended comment not prefixed by `#', thus
163 causing shell syntax errors. In this same comment, break a
164 too-long reported error message on multiple lines, for clarity.
165 Add reference to the relevant bug report. Add a comment which
166 explains why the test result 'skipped' if the first "make" call
167 fails. Add other useful comments.
168 * tests/depcomp9.test: Slightly improve comments.

182 test defs: fix 'javac' requirement for older JDK versions
183 The Java compiler from JDK 1.5 (and presumably earlier versions)
184 cannot handle the `-version' option by itself; and while it does
185 print the version number, it then errors out with an usage error:
188 javac: no source files
189 Usage: javac <options> <source files>
191 Luckily, adding the `-help' option to the `javac' invocation
192 seems to fix this problem.
193 * tests/defs.in (javac): Pass also the `-help' option to the
194 `javac' program. Add a comment explaining why it is needed.
195 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.

227 Fix makedepend depmode for VPATH builds.
228 * lib/depcomp [makedepend]: Remove any VPATH prefix from the
229 object file name, so a rebuild doesn't attempt to update the
230 .Po files in the source tree.

288 tests: fix unindent to use printf not echo for script.
289 * tests/defs.in: Use printf rather than echo, as the latter may

296 maintcheck: look for problematic names of testcases
297 The configure.in stub created by default by `tests/defs' obtains
298 the first argument of AC_INIT from the test name, and this can
299 cause some supported autoconf versions to fail with a spurious
300 error if that test name contains the name of an m4 or m4sugar
301 builtin or macro (e.g., `defn' or `m4_undefine').
302 See for example the bug fixed by commit v1.11-287-g1325a8a.
303 This change add a maintainer check that warns about test names
304 which are possibly problematic in this regard.
305 * Makefile.am (sc_test_names): New maintainer-check target.
306 (syntax_check_rules): Add it.
307 (m4_builtins): New helper variable.
308 (TESTS): Updated according to the following renamings.
309 * tests/include.test: Renamed ...
310 * tests/hdr-vars-defined-once.test: ... to this.
311 * tests/sinclude.test: Renamed ...

320 tests: fix bug in alloca*.test
321 * tests/alloca.test: Make grepping of automake stderr stricter,
322 add a trailing `:' command; also, add AC_PROG_CC to configure.in,
323 and create a dummy alloca.c file, to ensure that we fail for the
325 * tests/alloca2.test: Likewise. Also, look for LT_INIT, not
326 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, in the error message (bug introduced with commit

333 tests: fix bug (comments-in-var-defn.test + autoconf 2.62)
334 * tests/comments-in-var-defn.test: The configure.in stub created
335 by default, which has the AC_INIT first argument obtained by the
336 test name, causes autoconf 2.62 to fail with a spurious error
337 message like: "configure.in:1: error: defn: undefined macro:".
338 Thus, to prevent this, the test is renamed to ...
339 * tests/comments-in-var-def.test: ... this.

354 * tests/defs.in (commented_sed_unindent_prog): Commented Sed program
355 that strips the "proper" amount of leading whitespace.
356 (unindent): Lazily strip comments from the above program and use it
357 to unindent without using a temporary file.
359 2011-02-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
361 libtool: suggest LT_INIT if LTLIBRARIES primary is used
362 When the LTLIBRARIES primary was used, but $(LIBTOOL) wasn't
363 defined, automake suggested to add a call to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
364 in configure.ac. But that macro is deprecated since Libtool
365 version 1.9b (2004-08-29), in favor of the newer LT_INIT. So
366 suggest the use of this latter macro instead.
367 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_am_macro_for_var): Pair 'LIBTOOL'
368 with 'LT_INIT', not with 'AC_PROG_LIBTOOL'.
369 * tests/libtool4.test: Adjust and extend. Also, add a call to
370 macro AC_PROG_CC in configure.in, to help ensuring that automake
371 does not fail for the wrong reasons.
372 * tests/ltinit.test: New test, ensure that automake's libtool
373 support works with LT_INIT-based interface.
374 Thanks to Jack Kelly for the suggestion.

378 tests: tempdirs with restrictive permissions are cleaned correctly
379 Before this change, the removal of a temporary test directory
380 containing subdirectories with restrictive permissions (such as
381 'r--r--r--') could fail.
382 * tests/defs: Ensure that all the subdirectories of a temporary
383 test directory have the 'read', 'write' and 'execute' bits set,
384 before trying to remove it with `rm -rf'.

437 docs: color-tests issues with parallel make
438 * doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests): Document that automatic
439 recognition of a capable terminal attached to stdout can fail
440 with some make implementation when running in parallel mode,
441 thus causing colored test output not to be automatically
442 activated when it should.

446 tests: avoid instspc.test failures due to make's whitespace trimming
447 * tests/instspc.test: Prepend './' when passing the test

548 parallel-tests: work around Tru64/OSF 5.1 sh read bugs.
549 * lib/am/check.am ($(TEST_SUITE_LOG), recheck, recheck-html):
550 Test file readability before redirecting input from it, to avoid
551 exiting Tru64/OSF 5.1 sh which treats read as special builtin.
552 * tests/parallel-tests-unreadable-log.test: New test.

625 in the texinfo + cygnus interaction.
626 * tests/txinfo5.test: Update heading comments.

634 2011-01-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
636 Improve, extend and tweak tests on Texinfo support.
637 * tests/instdir-texi.test: Add a call to `ls -l' after that to
638 `make', for debugging. When looking for required tools, do not
639 redirect the output of "$tool --help" to /dev/null, and do not
640 uselessly run it in a subshell.
641 * tests/txinfo.test: Rewritten to run autoconf, ./configure and
642 make. All checks moved into Makefile.am.
643 * tests/txinfo8.test: Likewise, and modernize the generated
645 * tests/txinfo2.test: Moved checks into Makefile.am, and other
647 * tests/txinfo5.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
648 changes. Add trailing `:' command.
649 * tests/txinfo6.test: Likewise, and make grepping of generated
650 Makefile.in stricter.
651 * tests/txinfo7.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
652 changes. Add trailing `:' command. Do not add unnecessary stuff
654 * tests/txinfo9.test: Verify that more targets which are expected
655 to be generated only once really are. Make grepping less strict,
656 to avoid exposing too much internal details. More minor changes.
657 * tests/txinfo16.test: Add trailing `:'. Prefer cat over echo
658 for appending to configure.in. Updated/fixed heading comments.
659 * tests/txinfo23.test: Likewise, and extended a little by making
660 it check that no info file is created in the $(srcdir).
661 * tests/txinfo24.test: Likewise.
662 * tests/txinfo25.test: Likewise.
663 * tests/txinfo18.test: Add trailing `:'. Prefer cat over echo
664 for appending to configure.in. Also, check that index files are
665 cleaned also by "make clean", not only by "make distclean".
666 * tests/txinfo22.test: Prefer `$me' over hard-coded test name,
667 and added trailing `:' command. This testcase also used to check
668 that automake ignores in-line comments when using variables, but
669 preserves them in the output; these checks (added in commit
670 "Release-1-7f-4-g9177ef8") do not really pertain to this test,
671 so they have been moved ...
672 * tests/comments-in-var-defn.test: ... into this new test.
673 * tests/txinfo4.test: Escape literal dots in grep regexps. Add
674 trailing `:' command.
675 * tests/txinfo29.test: Likewise. Relax grepping of generated
676 Makefile.in w.r.t. whitespaces. Prefer `cat' over `echo' to
677 append to configure.in.
678 * tests/txinfo3.test: Likewise.
679 * tests/vtexi.test: Improve grepping of Makefile.in (sometimes
680 make it stricter, sometimes laxer). Move `set -e' setting just
681 after the inclusion of ./defs. De-uglify a sed command. Other
682 minor cosmetic improvements.
683 * tests/vtexi2.test: Make grepping of Makefile.in stricter. Add
684 trailing `:' command.

800 its output each time for a single error message, rather than
801 running "make -k" one single time and grepping its output for
802 all the expected error messages. This should work around make
803 implementations with limited (broken?) `-k' support; for more
804 information, see these subthreads on the automake-patches list:

855 Fix spurious failures in `silent*.test' for $CC != gcc
856 In some tests on automake-produced silent rules, we forced the
857 use of gcc depmode to improve testsuite coverage; but this has
858 unsurprisingly led to spurious failures when some non-GNU C
859 compilers were used. So we are now careful to require GCC in
860 tests that force gcc depmode.
861 From reports by Ralf Wildenhues.
862 * tests/silent5.test: Test removed, its content split into ...

990 the `$(SHELL)' macro on the command line of make, but this is
991 not supported by the AIX 5.3 make implementation.

1028 2010-11-07 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1030 Fix a bug in variable concatenation with `+='.
1031 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Since the content of the
1032 "appended-to" variable is going to be unconditionally normalized
1033 later, simply separate the appended value with a single whitespace
1034 character, instead of trying to be uselessly smarter by using
1035 escaped newlines. This fixes a bug in which extra backslashes
1036 where erroneously inserted in the variable's final value.
1037 * tests/pluseq11.test: New test, exposing the bug.
1038 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

1045 if control structure in a generated make rules. Bug introduced
1046 by previous commit `v1.11-221-gd7c1679', and revealed by failure
1047 of test `vala2.test'.
1049 2010-11-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1051 Fix and document rules to not touch the tree with `make -n'.
1052 * doc/automake.texi (Multiple Outputs): Document the problem of
1053 modifications during dry-run execution, propose solution.
1055 * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): Split recipe so the
1056 stamp file is not removed with GNU `make -n'.
1057 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Separate removal of parser output file
1058 and header remaking.
1059 * lib/am/lisp.am ($(am__ELCFILES)): Determine whether -n was
1060 passed to make, take care not to remove any files in that case.
1061 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Separate removal of

1087 * tests/help4.test: Fix broken sed commands used to strip `-W...'
1088 flags away from "$AUTOMAKE" and "$ACLOCAL".
1089 * tests/help3.test: Likewise, and fix a botched comment.
1090 * tests/help.test: Likewise. Also, use "AUTOMAKE_fails ..."
1091 instead of "$AUTOMAKE ... && Exit 1", for consistency and to

1096 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1098 Improve tests `help*.test' (also fixes maintcheck failures).
1099 * tests/help.test: To run automake, use `$AUTOMAKE' with all `-W'
1100 flags stripped away rather than hard-coded `automake-$APIVERSION',
1101 to better honour user-overrides. Similarly for aclocal.

1115 2010-10-02 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1117 Revert "parallel-tests: avoid command-line length limit issue."
1118 This reverts commit 24e3b4ee2f8cb9f72dd94a05a893f3d4e88b7835,
1119 because it re-opened the bug fixed by v1.11-10-g218e678.

1136 Extend tests on `--help' and `--version' options.
1137 * tests/help.test: Create a new empty directory and chdir into
1138 it, rather than removing already present files. Run the aclocal
1139 and automake wrapper scripts directly, instead of relying on
1140 $AUTOMAKE and $ACLOCAL. Be sure to correctly match literal dots
1141 in aclocal's and automake's stderr. Add a trailing `:' command.
1142 * tests/help2.test: New test, checking that options `--help' and
1143 `--version' works in directories with broken `configure.in'.

1178 Manual: be more agnostic w.r.t. version control system used.
1179 * doc/automake.texi (Basics of Distribution): Also refer to `.svn'
1180 directories as a type of probably-unwanted files that are copied
1181 regardless when adding directories to EXTRA_DIST.
1182 (The dist Hook): Show a dist-hook example which removes Subversion

1193 Perl modules: remove references to "Automake CVS repository".
1194 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Update comments to refer to "Automke's

1205 lib/Automake/.cvsignore, lib/Automake/tests/.cvsignore,
1206 m4/.cvsignore, tests/.cvsignore: Files deleted. Even when using
1207 savannah's CVS readonly mirror there's no way to commit back to
1208 the real repository, so this files are not worth maintaining or

1265 that made the test useless. Since we are at it, improve
1266 comments and make grepping of generated Makefile.in slightly
1268 Regression introduced by change "Modernize, improve and/or
1269 extend tests `colon*.test" (Stefano Lattarini, 2010-08-08).
1271 2010-09-08 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1273 Do not require "gzip" explicitly in tests.
1274 The gzip utility is simply expected to be present on any decent
1275 target system for Automake. So it's pointless to put it in
1277 * tests/install2.test ($required): Do not require "gzip".
1278 * tests/lex3.test: Likewise.
1279 * tests/pr9.test: Likewise.
1280 From a suggestion by Ralf Wildenhues.
1282 Make some `confh*.test' tests more "semantic" (plus tweakings).
1283 * tests/confh.test: Run "autoconf", "configure" and "make check",
1284 instead of munging/grepping the generated `Makefile.in'.
1285 * tests/confh4.test: Relax the grepping of Makefile.in w.r.t.
1286 white spaces. Do not create useless dummy source file `foo.c'
1287 and useless dummy header file `acconfig.h'.
1288 (configure.in): Remove superfluous call to `AC_OUTPUT'.
1289 * tests/confh6.test: Add trailing `:' command.

1370 some grepping slightly stricter.

1454 Tweak, extend and improve tests `cond[a-z]*.test'.
1455 * tests/condd.test: Add trailing `:' command. Typofix in
1457 * tests/condhook.test: Make sure target `install-data-hook' is
1458 not called by `make install', but that data files are installed.

1476 a useless dummy file. Add trailing `:' command.

1513 are requiring autoconf 2.62, so...)
1514 * tests/conflnk4.test: Cosmetic changes, and extend existing tests
1515 accordingly to "TODO" comments.
1516 * tests/conff2.test: Make grepping of Automake's stderr stricter.
1517 Add some comments explaining why we don't use the `configure.in'
1518 stub preset be ./defs.
1519 * tests/confh.test: Use the `configure.in' stub created by ./defs,
1520 rather than writing one from scratch, and do not call AC_OUTPUT.
1521 Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related changes. Prefer diff over
1522 cmp to compare text files. Prefer perl over sed to fetch the value

1546 * tests/depcomp.test: Do not create useless dummy source files.
1547 Add a trailing `:' command.
1548 * tests/depcomp2.test: Use `unset' on the CFLAG variable to ensure
1549 it's not in in the environment, rather than exporting it with an
1550 empty value. Do not pass CC=gcc to configure, as that's already
1551 done in ./defs since we have gcc in $required. Ensure verbose
1552 printing of captured stderr, and normalize its checking. Add a
1553 trailing `:' command.
1554 * tests/depcomp3.test: Quote literal dots and dollar characters in
1555 grep regexps. Always use `: >' rather than `touch' to create empty

1570 explanatory comments to it.
1571 * tests/depcomp7.test: Likewise, and add a trailing `:' command.
1573 Separate failing part of test `all.test'.
1574 * tests/all.test: Keep only (x)failing part of the test. Working

1597 * tests/subobj6.test: Add trailing `:' command. Move setting of
1598 `errexit' shell flag earlier in the script (just after inclusion
1599 of ./defs). Do not create useless dummy ac-init file `f'.
1600 * tests/subobj7.test: Do not create useless dummy ac-init file
1602 (configure.in): Use the stub created by `./defs', rather than
1603 writing it from scratch, and avoid obsolescent constructs.
1604 * tests/subobj9.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier
1605 in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Fail the test if
1606 `make distcheck' fails. Ensure verbose printing of captured make
1607 stdout. Avoid useless fork by doing simple grep instead of using
1608 test -n "`COMMAND | grep ...`".
1609 (configure.in): Normalize the call to AC_INIT w.r.t. other tests.
1610 (Makefile.am): Explicitly mark target "print" as phony.

1627 `eval' builtin. Fixed a botched error message. Removed an
1630 Bootstrap: don't search perl in $PATH.
1631 * bootstrap: Do not explicitly search perl in $PATH anymore.
1632 ($PATH_SEPARATOR): Removed, it's no more needed.
1634 Bootstrap: let the user choose which autoconf to use.
1635 * bootstrap ($AUTOCONF): New variable, from the environment.

1694 * tests/cond40.test: Extend test.
1697 Avoid syntax error if IF-TRUE part of AM_COND_IF expands empty.
1698 * m4/cond-if.m4 (AM_COND_IF): Ensure IF-TRUE part is never empty

1717 and in subdirs) stricter. Some minor changes to keep it more
1718 in sync with the related test `subdir8.test'.

1720 `subdir5.test' here).
1721 * tests/subdir6.test: Cosmetic change in spacing.

1725 * tests/subdirbuiltsources.test: Cosmetic changes in spacings.
1726 (configure.in): Use stub created by `./defs', rather than writing
1727 it from scratch. Do not use obsoleted and/or deprecated forms of
1728 autoconf/automake macros.
1730 Modernize and improve test scripts `dist*.test'.
1731 * tests/distcleancheck.test: Do not add useless `-e' option to
1732 a $MAKE call. Extend test by grepping stderr of make.
1733 * tests/distcom2.test: Do not run the same test script on the

1760 2010-07-18 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1762 Improve and extend test cond5.test.
1763 * tests/cond5.test: Do not blindly sleep 60 seconds before polling
1764 the background automake process, but poll it every 10 seconds for
1765 at most 30 times (this makes the test both faster on good machines,
1766 and more resilient to spurious timeout-due failures when in low
1767 priority or on heavily-loaded systems).
1768 Check also that automake writes the expected error messages on the
1770 Enable `errexit' flag, and related changes.
1771 Rely on the `configure.in' stub created by `./defs', rather than
1772 writing one from scratch.

1784 home page and GNU general help page.
1785 * automake.in (usage): Likewise.

1806 Tests: remove useless repetitions of `foreign' automake option.
1807 * tests/multlib.test (configure.in): Remove useless use of
1808 `foreign' option in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE (the `--foreign' option is
1809 already in $AUTOMAKE by default, so no point in repeating it).
1810 * tests/subobj10.test: Likewise.
1811 * tests/subobj9.test: Likewise.
1812 * tests/lex3.test (Makefile.am): Similarly, remove useless use

1826 Fix bugs in test script silent5.test.
1827 * tests/silent5.test: Fixed a nasty bug (due to the use of grep
1828 instead of egrep) that could have led to false negatives.
1830 2010-06-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1832 Add a test checking that distributed broken symlinks cause
1833 `make dist' to fail.

1845 tests/yflags2.test: Prefer `make -e' over `make VAR=VAL', to
1846 please maintainer-check. Ensure generated C files contain a
1847 declaration, to please compilers.
1849 2010-06-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1851 Fix bugs in Automake Yacc/Lex support w.r.t. $(AM_FLAGS) and
1852 $(FLAGS) precedence.
1853 * automake.in: Fix registration of languages "Lex", "Lex (C++)",
1854 "Yacc" and "Yacc (C++)", so that $(LFLAGS) has precedence over
1855 $(AM_LFLAGS) and $(YFLAGS) has precedence over $(AM_YFLAGS).
1856 * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Updated accordingly.
1859 New tests, exposing bugs in Automake Yacc/Lex support w.r.t.
1860 $(AM_FLAGS) and $(FLAGS) precedence.
1861 * tests/lflags.test: New test, check that user $(LFLAGS) takes
1862 precedence over automake (AM_LFLAGS) and (foo_LFLAGS). Still
1864 * tests/lflags2.test: Likewise.

1881 changes. Make grepping of Makefile.in slightly stricter.
1882 * tests/suffix.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
1883 changes. Also, do not redirect grep output to /dev/null, as this
1884 might unmotivatedly hide useful information.
1885 * tests/suffix2.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier
1886 in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Use a more
1887 idiomatic way to count text occurrences in Makefile.in with
1888 grep. Do not create useless dummy source files.
1889 * tests/suffix10.test: Ensure verbose printing of captured make
1890 stdout. Minor cosmetic changes.

1922 Modernize, improve and/or fix various test scripts.
1923 * tests/symlink3.test: Deleted, separated into two new, more
1925 * tests/forcemiss.test: ... this one ...
1926 * tests/forcemiss2.test: ... and this one.

1930 changes, and a couple of unrelated cosmetic changes.
1931 * tests/recurs.test: Use the `configure.in' stub created by
1932 `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch. Make grepping
1933 of Automake stderr slightly stricter.
1934 * tests/substtarg.test: Likewise.
1935 * tests/strip.test: Likewise, and move the call to `set -e'
1936 earlier (just after the inclusion of `./defs'). Also, make sure
1937 that the script installed by `make install-script' is equal to
1939 * tests/substref.test: Use the `configure.in' stub created by
1940 `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch. Move the call
1941 to `set -e' earlier (just after the inclusion of `./defs').
1942 Avoid to explicitly export CC for configure (that's already done
1943 in ./defs). Avoid potential problems with unpredictable make
1944 output. Finally, make grepping of Makefile.in stricter.
1945 * tests/substre2.test: Ensure verbose printing of the captured
1946 make's output, and make its grepping slightly stricter.

1959 instead of grep (this change makes some checks slightly stricter).
1960 * tests/pluseq8.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, with related
1962 * tests/pluseq.test: Likewise. Also, do not create useless dummy
1963 data files, and use better m4 quoting in generated configure.in.

1989 * tests/vars3.test: Likewise.
1990 * tests/missing4.test: Likewise, and fix a call to grep not to use
1992 * tests/ansi3.test: Likewise, and rely on the `configure.in' stub
1993 created by `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch.
1995 Enable `errexit' shell flag in various tests.
1996 * tests/backsl.test: Enable the `errexit' shell flag, and

2019 2010-06-12 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2020 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2022 Extend tests/README w.r.t. trailing `:' in test scripts.
2023 * tests/README (section "Writing test cases" subsection "Do"):
2024 Explain why apparently redundant trailing `:' and `Exit 0' in
2025 test scripts can indeed be useful.
2027 2010-06-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2029 Improve determination of PATH separator in bootstrap script.
2030 * bootstrap: Determine what the PATH separator is the same way
2033 Minor improvements in bootstrap script.
2034 * bootstrap: Consistently use two-spaces indentation. Cosmetic
2035 improvement to comments.
2036 ($me): New variable, containing program basename.
2037 Prepend it to all error messages.
2039 Testsuite now works with BSD make in parallel mode.
2040 * tests/defs.in: Unset variables __MKLVL__ and MAKE_JOBS_FIFO,
2041 which are exported by BSD make when run in parallel mode, and
2042 which can confuse make processes spawned by our testsuite.
2043 This change fixes a lot of spurious failure when the testsuite
2044 is run with BSD make in parallel mode.
2046 2010-06-09 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2048 Modernize, improve and/or fix various test scripts.
2049 * tests/sanity.test: Rely on the `configure.in' stub created by
2050 `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch.
2051 * tests/depend2.test: Likewise. Also, call `set -e' just after
2052 the inclusion of `./defs', instead that later in the script.
2053 * tests/canon5.test: Avoid a useless `|| Exit 1' after a call to
2054 $AUTOMAKE, and improve the positioning of an $ACLOCAL call.
2055 * tests/exeext4.test: Use $FGREP instead of grep, where possible.
2056 Make auxiliary rules in the generated Makefile more silent.
2057 These changes make some checks slightly stricter.
2058 * tests/ext2.test: Call `Exit 1' if inclusion of `./defs' fails.
2059 * tests/gettext2.test: Place final `:' at the end of the script,
2060 rather than in the middle.
2061 * tests/exeext.test: Call `set -e' just after the inclusion of
2062 `./defs', instead that later in the script.
2063 * tests/extra5.test: Likewise.
2064 * tests/confdeps.test: Likewise. Also, prefer `mv -f' over
2065 plain `mv', just to be sure.
2066 * tests/depcomp.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, with related
2067 changes. Also, modernize the generated configure.in.
2068 * tests/cond9.test: Likewise. Also, rely on the `configure.in'

2072 * tests/depend3.test: Likewise.
2073 * tests/distcom7.test: Likewise.
2074 * tests/fortdep.test: Likewise. Also, remove definition of
2075 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS to `foreign' in the generated Makefile.am,
2076 since that flag is already provided by $AUTOMAKE.
2077 * tests/mdate.test: Made stricter, by checking that Automake
2078 actually failed, and by making a stricter grep on the error
2079 message. Also, set shell `errexit flag'.
2080 * tests/python2.test: Improved verbose messages.
2082 Make test `ammissing.test' stricter.
2083 * tests/ammissing.test: Fail if $ACLOCAL succeeds unexpectedly.

2103 command substitution.
2104 * tests/version.test: Likewise, and avoid deprecated constructs
2105 in the generated `configure.in'.

2107 in the generated `configure.in'.
2109 2010-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2111 Prefer AUTOMAKE_fails over `$AUTOMAKE | grep' in tests.
2112 * tests/ldadd.test: Enable errexit. Use AUTOMAKE_fails so
2113 the verbose log contains all output.
2114 * tests/mdate.test: Likewise.
2115 Prompted by Stefano Lattarini's change to discover.test.
2117 2010-06-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2119 Improve tests link*.test (enable `errexit' shell flag).

2131 Improve ext.test semantics, avoid OpenBSD sh errexit issue.
2132 * tests/ext.test: Inside shell compound command, use
2133 `if $cmd; then Exit 1; fi' rather than `$cmd && Exit 1', to
2134 fix failure with OpenBSD sh introduced with last patch.
2135 Actually ensure that a rule for .EXT.o is created for each
2136 known extension EXT.

2208 2010-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2210 Rewrite manual to be gender-neutral.
2211 * doc/automake.texi (GNU Build System)
2212 (Standard Directory Variables, General Operation, CVS)
2213 (Hard-Coded Install Paths, Dependencies As Side Effects):
2214 Rewrite text to not contain gender-specific pronouns when
2215 speaking about developers or users, either by avoiding pronouns
2216 or by addressing them as `you' instead.
2218 Report by Christina Gratorp.
2222 2010-06-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2224 Make tests on user extensibility of silent-rules mode stricter.
2225 * tests/silent6.test: Made stricter w.r.t. the grepping of the
2226 output produced by `make'.
2227 * tests/silent7.test: Likewise.
2229 Tests on silent-mode for C/Libtool made stricter.
2230 * tests/silent.test: Made stricter w.r.t. the grepping of the
2231 output produced by `make'.
2232 * tests/silent2.test: Likewise.
2233 * tests/silent4.test: Likewise.
2234 * tests/silent9.test: Likewise.
2235 * tests/silent3.test: Likewise, and add a final `make distclean'
2236 command to keep it better in sync with tests/silent{4,9}.test.
2238 Improved test silent5.test.
2239 * tests/silent5.test: Remove by hand all generated C files after
2240 non-verbose builds, to ensure the following builds are clean.
2241 Try to clean and rebuild with the same verbosity and without
2242 removing generated sources in between, to check that this does
2243 not trigger a different set of rules. Make grepping of make's
2244 output stricter. Improved/added some comments.
2246 New tests for Automake silent-mode with Fortran.
2247 * tests/silentf77.test: New test.
2248 * tests/silentf90.test: Likewise.
2249 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2251 New test `silentcxx.test' (Automake silent-mode with C++).
2252 * tests/silentcxx.test: New test.
2253 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2255 New test `silentyacc.test' (Automake silent-mode with Yacc).
2256 * tests/silentyacc.test: New test.
2257 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2259 New test `silentlex.test' (Automake silent-mode with Lex).
2260 * tests/silentlex.test: New test.
2261 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2263 Relax tests on silent-rules to cater to overly verbose makes.
2264 * tests/silent.test: When testing silent builds, don't fail if
2265 make's output simply contains the `mv' substring, but only if
2266 it contains the `mv ' substring (note the trailing space).
2267 * tests/silent2.test: Likewise.

2273 2010-01-24 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2275 Fix silent-rules output for disabled dependency tracking.
2276 * lib/am/depend2.am [!%FASTDEP%]: Rework silent-rules variable
2277 expansion code to also work in the case where %AMDEP% expands
2278 to FALSE at config.status time, using new substitution string
2280 * automake.in (verbose_nodep_flag): New function, appending
2281 `@am__nodep@' to the verbose-variable name.
2282 (handle_languages): If dependencies are not disabled, use it to
2283 set %VERBOSE-NODEP%.
2284 * m4/depend.m4: Substitute am__nodep as '_no', so the second
2285 verbose-variable will always expand to an empty string, if
2286 dependencies are enabled.
2287 * tests/silent5.test: Also test --disable-dependency-tracking;
2288 also test per-target flags for non-C language files.
2289 * tests/silent9.test: New test, like silent4.test but disable
2290 dependency tracking.
2291 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
2292 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.
2293 Report by Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>.
2295 2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2297 Extend test on `nostdinc' automake option.
2298 * tests/nostdinc.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag. Related and
2299 unrelated minor changes. Make the grepping of the generated
2300 Makefile.in slightly stricter. Generate and run configure, so that
2301 the generated Makefile can be grepped too.
2303 2010-05-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2305 Make gnupload portable to EBCDIC hosts.
2306 * lib/gnupload: Use literal newline as argument for 'tr' rather
2307 than \015, for EBCDIC hosts. Also, avoid unportable nested
2308 double-quotes and backquotes.
2310 Report from Eric Blake and Steve Goetze via gnulib.
2312 2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2314 Fix Autoconf version required by Automake's configure.
2315 Automake configure script used to tell that automake required
2316 autoconf 2.60 or later, but then it checked for autoconf >= 2.62,
2317 and if that was not found, it gave an error saying that Automake
2318 required configure 2.61a-341 or later. This change should
2319 eliminate such inconsistencies.
2320 * configure.ac ($required_autoconf_version): New variable.
2323 2010-05-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2325 Fix unportable sed script in maintainer-check test.
2326 * Makefile.am (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Rewrite sed script to
2327 not contain semicolon after 'b' or brace commands, for NetBSD.
2329 Wildcards are not portable to NetBSD make.
2330 * doc/automake.texi (Wildcards): Document portability issue.
2331 * tests/extra10.test, tests/extra11.test, tests/extra12.test:
2334 2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2336 Make test for configure.in vs. configure.ac stricter.
2337 * tests/configure.test: Use a configure.in file that provokes
2338 an automake error, to ensure configure.ac is preferred.
2340 Avoid possible false negatives in dejagnu7.test.
2341 * tests/dejagnu7.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag. Also, avoid
2342 unportable use of fgrep option `-e'.
2344 Fix conflnk3.test to work with Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
2345 * tests/conflnk3.test: Use `test -r FILE' and `test ! -r FILE'
2346 instead of respectively `test -e FILE' and `test ! -e FILE',
2347 since Solaris Sh doesn't grok the latter. Do not SKIP the test
2348 if the shell doesn't support `test -e'.
2350 2010-04-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2353 * doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests using parallel-tests): Add
2354 missing closing parenthesis.
2356 Fix leftover call to removed function macros_dump.
2357 * automake.in (read_main_am_file): Call variables_dump, not
2358 macros_dump. Print actual error before list of variables.
2360 2010-04-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2362 Minor improvements in comments of test `silent3.test'.
2363 * tests/silent3.test: Tell to keep it in sync with `silent9.test'
2366 2010-04-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2368 testsuite: ensure verbose printing of captured output.
2369 * tests/acloca14.test, tests/acloca18.test, tests/aclocal.test,
2370 tests/fort2.test, tests/help.test, tests/missing3.test,
2371 tests/missing6.test: Print captured stdout or stderr before
2374 2010-04-20 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2376 Make test badopt.test stricter (by enabling `set -e').
2377 * tests/badopt.test: Add call to `set -e'. Due to this change,
2378 an unexpected failure in the call to `$ACLOCAL' (whose outcome
2379 was previously unchecked) would cause the whole test to fail.
2380 Also, bumped the copyright years.
2382 Make test for configure.in vs. configure.ac stricter.
2383 * tests/configure.test: Use a configure.in file that provokes
2384 an automake error, to ensure configure.ac is preferred.
2386 Use `set -e' in confsub.test (avoids possible false negatives).
2387 * tests/confsub.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag, and related
2388 changes (this helps avoiding some possible minor false negatives).
2389 Also, bumped copyright years.
2391 2010-04-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2393 Fix -Werror handling for presence of configure.in and configure.ac.
2394 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (Automake::Variable): Do not initialize
2395 $configure_ac at the global level, before command-line arguments
2397 (require_variables): Initialize it here.
2398 * tests/configure.test: New test.
2399 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2400 Report by Stefano Lattarini.
2402 2010-04-20 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2404 Avoid possible false negatives in confh5.test.
2405 * tests/confh5.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag, and bumped
2406 copyright years. Due to this change, any unexpected failure
2407 in calls to $ACLOCAL, $AUTOMAKE, $AUTOCONF or $AUTOHEADER, or
2408 a failure in grepping expected text in output files should now
2409 cause the whole test to fail.
2411 2010-04-17 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2413 Fixed typo in POD documentation of Automake::Channels.
2414 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Fixed typo in POD documentation:
2415 @<...> was used instead of C<...>.
2417 2010-04-14 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2419 Refactor tests on Automake TESTS color output.
2420 * tests/color.test: Tests using the expect program moved out to...
2421 * tests/color2.test: ... this new file.
2422 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Extended accordingly.
2424 2010-04-12 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2426 Fix typos in comments in test confh5.test
2427 * tests/confh5.test: Fix a couple of typos in comments.
2429 Avoid possible false negatives in canon-name.test.
2430 * tests/canon-name.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag. Improve
2433 2010-04-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2435 Fix per-Makefile.am setting of -Werror.
2436 Before this patch, 'AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = -Werror' in one
2437 Makefile.am would carry over to other Makefile.am files
2438 treated afterwards by the same thread, causing inconsistent
2439 and unstable exit status values.
2440 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (dup_channel_setup)
2441 (drop_channel_setup): Save and restore the setting of
2442 $warnings_are_errors.
2443 * tests/werror3.test: New test.
2444 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
2447 2010-04-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2449 Bugfix in confh5.test w.r.t. Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
2450 * tests/confh5.test: In the generated Makefile.am: do not use
2451 `test ! -e FILE' to check for the non-existence of a file, since
2452 that is not supported by Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
2454 Make test `aclocal3.test' stricter.
2455 * tests/aclocal3.test: Add call to `set -e'. Fail if $ACLOCAL

2477 Avoid another use of `chmod -R'.
2478 * Makefile.am (path-check): To be safe, do not use `chmod -R' on
2479 $(distdir) before removing it (as Solaris `chmod -R' touches
2480 symlink targets). Instead, use the cleanup strategy used in
