* tests: remove exec bit from all of them ('micro' branch)Stefano Lattarini2013-05-161-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It gives the impression that they are directly runnable, as with "./t/foo.sh", but it has been a while since that was the case. Today, tests are runnable only through "make check" or "./runtest". This change is for the 'micro' branch (automake 1.13.2a). It will soon be followed by similar patches for the 'maint' branch (automake 1.13a) and the 'master' branch (automake 1.99a). * t/*.sh, t/*.tap: Remove executable bit. * maint.mk (sc_tests_executable): Remove. (syntax_check_rules): Adjust. * gen-testsuite-part: Set permissions of generated tests to '444' (-r--r--r--), rather than 555 (-r-xr-xr-x).

* maint: describe new versioning and branching scheme, and adjust to itStefano Lattarini2013-02-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | See discussion about automake bug#13578 for more details and background. Basically, for the versioning scheme: - micro versions only for bug and regression fixing; - minor versions for new backward-compatible features, and new non-fatal deprecations; - major versions for backward-incompatibilities, complex new features, and major refactoring. And for the git branching scheme: + branch 'next' is for the upcoming major version; + branch 'master' is now for the upcoming minor version; + branch 'maint' is for the upcoming micro (bug-fixing) version; + the merging hierarchy is: 'maint' -> 'master' -> 'next'. * HACKING (Automake versioning and compatibility scheme): New. (Working with git): Adjust. * NEWS: Update and fix. * aclocal.in: Adjust some "FIXME" messages. * automake.in: Likewise. * m4/mkdirp.m4: Likewise. * t/aclocal-acdir.sh: Likewise. * t/aclocal-macrodir.tap: Likewise. * t/aclocal-macrodirs.tap: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Options.pm: Likewise. * m4/internal/ac-config-macro-dirs.m4: Likewise.

* aclocal: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS: work around autom4te option parsing bugsStefano Lattarini2012-11-151-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The autom4te program coming with autoconf 2.68 and earlier had a bug which caused the "-" command line argument (with which we tell it to read some input from from standard input) to aways be pushed at the *end* of the command line, regardless of where the user specified it (that bug was fixed by autoconf commit 'v2.68-120-gf4be358', "getopt: new Autom4te::Getopt module"). This broken semantics conflict with our usage in aclocal, where we need to pass some input to the invoked autom4te program early, and have so far been using the stdin to do so. Now we start using an external file instead. * m4/internal/ac-config-macro-dirs.m4: New file, contain a fallback definition of the AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS macro for older autoconf releases. * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): When invoking autom4te, use that file instead of "abusing" standard input. * Makefile.am (dist_automake_ac_DATA): Rename ... (nobase_dist_automake_ac_DATA): ... like this. Add 'm4/internal/ac-config-macro-dirs.m4' to it. * t/aclocal-acdir.sh: Adjust to avoid spurious failures.

* tests: prefer including 'test-init.sh' rather than './defs'Stefano Lattarini2012-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a follow-up to today's commit v1.12.4-22-g0610fc8, "tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh" * All tests: To run the common setup, use the command: . test-init.sh instead of the older, "historical" one: . ./defs || exit 1 Note that the "|| exit 1" wasn't really useful, since the 'errexit' shell flag is in effect in both './defs' and 'test-init.sh', and all the known shells that are good enough to run the automake testsuite do automatically exit with error when a sourced file cannot be found (at least, they do so in non-interactive mode, which is the only mode that concerns us in the testsuite). * t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise. * gen-testsuite-part: Do the same in the generated tests.

| * tests: simpler workaround for shells losing the exit status in exit trapStefano Lattarini2012-06-251-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we can assume our tests are run by a decent POSIX shell, we can simplify our workaround aimed at having the exit status propagated correctly to the code in the exit trap. Unfortunately, we cannot dispense with such a workaround altogether, because it's still required by some shells we need to support (at least Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh). For more information about the need of that workaround, see the entry about 'trap' in the section "Limitations of Shell Builtins" in the Autoconf manual: <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#trap> The new workaround has been tested successfully with the following shells: - Bash 4.1 - Bash 3.2 - Bash 3.0 - Bash 2.05b - dash 0.5.5.1 - dash 0.5.2 - AT&T Ksh 93u (from official Debian package) - MirBSD Korn Shell 40.2 (from official Debian package) - Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /bin/ksh - Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh - NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh - NetBSD 5.1 /bin/ksh * t/ax/test-init.sh (Exit): Rename ... (_am_exit): ... like this. (exit): New alias for '_am_exit'. We cannot simply redefine 'exit' as a shell function, because some shells (dash 0.5.5.1, Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh) do not allow it. (_am_exit, trap): Add extra escaping for 'exit' calls, to ensure we really invoke the 'exit' builtin and not our alias with the same name. * configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run our testsuite supports aliases named like shell builtins. * t/REAMDE: Adjust. * All tests: Adjust, by simply using 'exit' instead of 'Exit'. * t/self-check-explicit-skips.sh: Adjust: the first usage of 'exit' after it has been redefined as an alias must be on a new line w.r.t. that where the alias is defined, in order for the redefinition to be honored. * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Delete. (sc_tests_exit_not_Exit): New. (syntax_check_rules): Adjust. (sc_tests_automake_fails): Simplify the recipe a little. * Several tests: Remove now useless spurious quoting once required to placate the 'sc_tests_Exit_not_exit' maintainer check. * gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. Also, avoid uses of 'Exit' in the generated scripts. Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
* | aclocal: remove the --acdir optionStefano Lattarini2012-04-271-23/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It not documented in the manual anymore, its use has already been causing a deprecation warning, and its oncoming removal has already been announced in the NEWS file. So let's finally remove it. * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Don't recognize the '--acdir' option anymore. (handle_acdir_option): Remove subroutine. * configure.ac ($ACLOCAL): Adjust. ($AUTOMAKE): Cosmetic changes, for consistency. * tests/aclocal-acdir.test: Remove usages of the '--acdir' option. * tests/aclocal-print-acdir.test: Likewise. * NEWS: Update.

* tests: rename 'tests/' => 't/', '*.test' => '*.sh'Stefano Lattarini2012-04-061-0/+95
When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information. Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test' script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test' will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters. * tests/: Rename ... * t/: ... to this. * t/*.test: Rename ... * t/*.sh: ... to this. * t/.gitignore: Removed as obsolete. * t/defs: Adjust. * t/gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Likewise. * t/ccnoco.sh: Likewise. * t/ccnoco3.sh: Likewise. * t/self-check-cleanup.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-dir.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-me.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-reexec.tap: Likewise. * README: Likewise. * bootstrap: Likewise * configure.ac: Likewise. * Makefile.am: Likewise. * .gitignore: Likewise. * syntax-check.mk: Likewise.
