Akim Demaille 2bb6340f 2021-09-11T10:06:13 tests: let yacc's yyerror take its argument as a const string Some of yacc error messages are const strings; it makes no sense for yyerror to take a 'char *', it should be a 'const char *' as POSIX now requires. Fixes all the failures reported by Kiyoshi Kanazawa. <https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2021-09/msg00005.html> See bug#50469 <https://debbugs.gnu.org/50469>. * t/cond35.sh, t/silent-many-languages.sh, t/silent-yacc-headers.sh, * t/silent-yacc.sh, t/subpkg-yacc.sh, t/suffix10.tap, t/yacc-basic.sh, * t/yacc-clean.sh, t/yacc-d-basic.sh, t/yacc-d-vpath.sh, * t/yacc-deleted-headers.sh, t/yacc-depend.sh, t/yacc-depend2.sh, * t/yacc-dist-nobuild-subdir.sh, t/yacc-dist-nobuild.sh, t/yacc-dry.sh, * t/yacc-line.sh, t/yacc-misc.sh, t/yacc-mix-c-cxx.sh, t/yacc-nodist.sh, * t/yacc-pr204.sh, t/yacc-subdir.sh, t/yacc-vpath.sh, * t/yflags-cmdline-override.sh, t/yflags-force-override.sh (yyerror): From 'char *' to 'const char *'.

Fixes automake bug https://debbugs.gnu.org/49317. * bin/automake.in: implement new option "no-dist-built-sources" to omit the dependency of distdir on $(BUILT_SOURCES).

Joshua Root ed8daa06 2021-05-18T15:11:59 python: use Python's sys.prefix and sys.exec_prefix for PYTHON_PREFIX and PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX; new configure options --with-python_prefix and --with-python_exec_prefix to set explicitly. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/35322. * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): use Python's sys.prefix and sys.exec_prefix for PYTHON_PREFIX and PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX, instead of $prefix and $exec_prefix. But use a variable reference to ${prefix} if it is contained within sys.prefix; similarly for exec_prefix. Also support new configure options to set explicitly. (PYTHON_PREFIX, PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX): AC_SUBST these. (am_cv_python_pythondir): use our new $am_cv_python_prefix, substituting ${PYTHON_PREFIX}. (am_cv_python_pyexecdir): likewise. * doc/automake.texi (Python): PYTHON_PREFIX, PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX, document new approach. * t/instmany-python.sh: set PYTHON_PREFIX as needed. * t/python-vars.sh (PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX, PYTHON_PREFIX): also set from Python's sys.{exec_,}prefix; use ${PYTHON_{EXEC,}PREFIX} instead of ${exec_,}prefix.

Karl Berry 03d1ab0a 2021-02-22T18:23:16 doc: a_LDFLAGS always overrides AM_LDFLAGS. This change addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/34925. * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): document that using a_LDFLAGS at all, even in the false branch of a conditional, means that AM_LDFLAGS is ignored.
Mike Frysinger 784fcf21 2021-02-21T18:26:15 doc: [AM_]RUNTESTFLAGS not [AM_]RUNTESTDEFAULTFLAGS. * doc/automake.texi (Other Variables): Change [AM_]RUNTESTDEFAULTFLAGS to [AM_]RUNTESTFLAGS.
Karl Berry 89a76c9c 2021-02-11T18:05:15 doc: user flags last does not always allow overriding. This change addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/35526. * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering): recognize that user flags last does not always allow overriding.
Karl Berry f80a940a 2021-01-06T17:57:08 doc: discuss AC_* ordering a little. * doc/automake.texi (Optional): mention that AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR must be called before AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, and recommend that other AC_CONFIG_* macros be called after. This seems to be the most common practice. Autoconf does not currently impose ordering: https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?110416
Zack Weinberg ccb57553 2020-12-14T14:50:47 Fix some build and test failures with Autoconf 2.70. Autoconf 2.70 (released last week) makes a few changes that broke Automake’s expectations, mostly in the test suite. This patch addresses two of the problems: - autoconf now issues a warning if fed a configure script that doesn’t invoke both AC_INIT and AC_OUTPUT; this, plus a problem with system-provided tools (still under investigation) broke the *build* on macOS; it also causes a couple of spurious testsuite failures. - AC_PACKAGE_NAME and AC_PACKAGE_VERSION are now defined unconditionally. AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE needs to use m4_ifset instead of m4_ifdef to diagnose the obsolete use of AC_INIT with fewer than two arguments. (This change is compatible with autoconf 2.69; m4_ifset is much older, and it means ‘defined with a non-empty value’.) * configure.ac: Use both AC_INIT and AC_OUTPUT in test configure scripts. * t/deprecated-acinit.sh, t/init.sh: Likewise. * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use m4_ifset, not m4_ifdef, to detect AC_PACKAGE_NAME and/or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION not having a value.
Karl Berry 6a753ef5 2020-12-13T18:34:35 python: don't assume $(...) in py-compile. This change (very) partially fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/45205. * lib/py-compile: use `...` instead of $(...). Solaris 10 /bin/sh is still in use.
Karl Berry 9f044de1 2020-12-09T15:02:19 tests: more .NOTPARALLEL tests. * t/java-compile-run-nested.sh: .NOTPARALLEL in subdirs too.
Karl Berry 87b29629 2020-12-08T15:01:00 tests: more .NOTPARALLEL tests. * contrib/t/multilib.sh: yet more .NOTPARALLEL for AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE, found by Jim on heavier machines. * t/autodist-stamp-vti.sh: likewise. * t/java-compile-run-nested.sh: likewise. * t/transform2.sh: likewise.
Karl Berry 95da1185 2020-12-07T15:53:01 tests: more .NOTPARALLEL tests. * contrib/t/multilib.sh: use .NOTPARALLEL to avoid unreproducible (and undebuggable, by me) test failures when running make -j$njobs AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE="make -j$njobs" for some arbitrary but rather large value of $njobs. The failures don't occur with just make -j; have to run the makes inside the tests in parallel also. * t/java-compile-install.sh: likewise. * t/java-compile-run-flat.sh: likewise. * t/java-uninstall.sh: likewise. * t/vala-headers.sh: likewise.
Karl Berry 46420770 2020-12-05T18:19:18 doc: comment Vala -newer test. This change updates https://bugs.gnu.org/44772. * bin/automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): comment that we're checking "C file not older than Vala file", and the log message misleadingly says "reversed".
Reuben Thomas d2ccbd7e 2020-12-05T18:11:55 tags: support setting CTAGS, ETAGS, CSCOPE vars via ./configure. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/45013. * m4/init.m4: add default settings and AC_SUBST calls for the variables `CTAGS', `ETAGS' and `CSCOPE'. * lib/am/tags.am: remove default settings of the above variables. * doc/automake.texi (Tags): mention and index. * NEWS: mention.
Karl Berry e83520ff 2020-12-03T11:00:53 warnings: be less forceful about a missing subdir-objects option. This change somewhat ameliorates https://bugs.gnu.org/20699. * bin/automake.in (handle_single_transform): change forward-incompatibility message for subdir-objects to be less draconian and less certain that the change will ever be made. * t/subobj.sh: message text has changed. * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): mention the unfortunate fact that one directory can clean in a sibling, subdir-objects notwithstanding.
Karl Berry b35822b5 2020-11-27T18:07:10 tests: .NOTPARALLEL test-driver-create-log-dir. * t/test-driver-create-log-dir.sh (.NOTPARALLEL): add target, since the two tests under sub/ seem to have a race condition. No evident way to debug or reliably reproduce. Reported by Jim.
Reuben Thomas 7581ec20 2020-11-27T18:02:08 vala: avoid wrong regeneration of C files. This change might fix https://bugs.gnu.org/44772. * bin/automake.in (lang_val_finish_target): reverse -newer test to handle files being created at the same time causing spurious rebuilds.
Karl Berry 1f166f3c 2020-11-24T14:24:22 doc: typo. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/44845. * doc/automake.texi (Vala Support): zardoz.c not zardoc.c.
Karl Berry a5af212c 2020-11-23T18:04:56 tests: create log file before running the test script. This change partially fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/35762. * lib/test-driver: create $log_file before running the test script. Also quote $log_file. Combined suggestions from howaboutsynergy and Eric Blake.
Karl Berry dd616e2d 2020-11-22T10:13:16 doc: mention overriding SUBDIRS= with TESTS= and recursive make. This change palliates https://bugs.gnu.org/42883, though it's not a real fix. * doc/automake.texi (Parallel Test Harness): with recursive make, when limiting the tests run, also presumably needed to override SUBDIRS.
Jim Meyering 5ce670d9 2020-11-18T20:19:12 maint: Post-release administrivia * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump version number to 1.16b. * m4/amversion.m4: Likewise (auto-updated by "make bootstrap").

Jim Meyering 17e6f26a 2020-11-15T21:14:24 tests: avoid missing .dvi failure with parallel tests * t/txinfo-no-clutter.sh: Tests of texinfo-related rules had overlap that made them fail often when some rules were run in parallel, so inhibit parallelism in that one directory. See discussion starting at https://lists.gnu.org/r/automake-patches/2020-11/msg00011.html
Jim Meyering 26ef6e7f 2020-11-15T09:00:37 tests: protect against parallel false failure * t/parallel-tests-console-output.sh: Do not depend on the order of items in test summary. With a parallel test run, they may appear in a different order, e.g., when running tests like this: make check AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE='make -j14' Sort the expected output and the actual output before comparing.
Jim Meyering ba522c63 2020-11-15T08:12:40 doc: fix quoting in suggested parallel test invocation * t/README: Fix reversed single/double quotes.
Jim Meyering 103cf704 2020-11-14T20:19:28 tests: accommodate an $ac_aux_dir of "." or "./" * t/auxdir-pr15981.sh: This test would fail when run with autoconf-2.69d because $ac_aux_dir would be "./" rather than the expected ".". Accept both.
Jim Meyering b495c128 2020-11-14T19:51:46 tests: avoid failures due to missing ar-lib * t/ar4.sh: Create dummy ar-lib, as done in other tests, to avoid failure like this: configure: error: cannot find required auxiliary files: ar-lib * t/ar5.sh: Likewise.
Karl Berry 3313d9ca 2020-11-13T17:51:46 install-sh: trailing whitespace. * lib/install-sh: remove trailing whitespace. Sigh. (scriptversion): 2020-11-14.01

Karl Berry 9b7f0f9e 2020-11-10T17:58:41 vala: forgot to update lists-of-tests.mk. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_tests): include t/vala-libs-distcheck.sh and t/vala-libs-vpath.sh. Should have been committed with 2020-10-29 vala change, but somehow missed. 2020-11-10 Karl Berry <karl@freefriends.org>

Reuben Thomas 782ac400 2020-11-07T18:44:56 vala: improve support, especially builddir vs. srcdir. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/13002. * NEWS: mention these changes. * bin/automake.in: generated C files go in builddir, not srcdir. Distribute the header files generated from VAPI files. * t/vala-libs-distcheck.sh: new test for `make distcheck' of a Vala library. * t/vala-libs-vpath.sh: new test for a VPATH build of a Vala library. * t/vala-libs.sh: add local VAPIs used as external --package to test. * t/vala-recursive-setup.sh: we need to make maintainer-clean at one point to remove stamp files to avoid confusing a VPATH build performed after a non-VPATH build. * t/vala-non-recursive-setup.sh: likewise. * t/vala-parallel.sh: some test paths need changing to take into account that generated C files now go in builddir. * t/vala-per-target-flags.sh: likewise. * t/vala-recursive-setup.sh: likewise. * t/vala-vpath.sh: likewise.
Karl Berry 285c285c 2020-11-07T18:11:03 tests: recompute dependencies when lists-of-tests.mk changes. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/44458 and updates https://bugs.gnu.org/11347. * t/local.mk ($(srcdir)/%D/testsuite-part.am): restore dependency on '%D/list-of-tests.mk' (i.e., t/list-of-tests.mk), partially reverting the change of 26 Apr 2012 for bug#11347. Otherwise, new tests that have dependencies will not cause an update of testsuite-part.am, leading to strange failures (bug#44458). The original problem being fixed in #11347 was unnecessary rebuilding when modifying tests; that should not be affected here, but when new tests are added, it seems reasonable, as well as necessary, to ensure dependencies are updated.
Miro Hron\v{c}ok e21d46fd 2020-10-27T14:33:46 python: determine Python (3.10) version number correctly. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/44239 (and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1889732). * m4/python.m4: use print('%u.%u' % sys.version_info[:2]) for the version number instead of merely sys.version[:3], so the numbers are treated as numbers. * t/python-vars.sh (PYTHON_VERSION): Likewise. * doc/automake.texi: Document it. * NEWS: mention it. (Minor tweaks from Karl Berry.)
Jim Meyering 310edf02 2020-10-23T21:13:09 doc: correct "moved in", to "moved to" * NEWS: Correct wording. * contrib/README: Likewise. * doc/automake.texi: Likewise.
Reuben Thomas e30c0962 2020-10-15T13:11:11 contrib/README: fix and clarify the English
Reuben Thomas f832992d 2020-10-21T23:31:46 Improve Vala compiler detection: use API version, not compiler version * m4/vala.m4: check `valac --api-version', not `valac --version'. * doc/automake.texi: update documentation.
Zack Weinberg 9f83372b 2020-10-07T09:19:06 Use complete configure.ac’s in testsuite. Autoconf 2.70 will issue warnings if it encounters a configure.ac that doesn’t call both AC_INIT and AC_OUTPUT. Automake already issues warnings if it encounters a configure.ac that uses an AM_ macro but doesn’t call AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE or AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile]). In two places, the testsuite was tripping these warnings, leading to spurious failures with Autoconf 2.70 betas. * t/aminit-moreargs-deprecation.sh: Add AC_OUTPUT to test configure.ac. * t/mkdirp-deprecation.sh: Use a complete test configure.ac, not a stub containing only a use of AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.
Karl Berry dbc1c9e7 2020-10-06T18:16:14 automake: install-exec did not depend on $(BUILT_SOURCES). This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/43683. * lib/am/install.am (install-exec): %maybe_BUILT_SOURCES% dependency, twice. Basic patch from madmurphy (tiny change), message#8. (.MAKE) [maybe_BUILT_SOURCES]: depend on install-exec. * NEWS: mention it. * doc/automake.texi (Sources): mention this (also that make dist depends on $(BUILT_SOURCES)). * t/built-sources-install-exec.sh: new test. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): add it. * t/built-sources-install.sh: typo. * t/built-sources-check.sh: typo.
Zack Weinberg e0d69cc7 2020-09-21T14:16:33 Update documentation of warnings options and strictness levels. The warning categories ‘cross’ and ‘portability-recursive’ were not mentioned in the manual. Also clarify the relationship between warnings categories and strictness levels, and streamline the description of strictness levels by merging the “Gnits” section into the “Strictness” section. * doc/automake.texi (Gnits, Strictness): Combine these sections. Minor revisions to explanation of strictness levels. (automake Invocation): Add documentation of all the warnings categories that have been added since the last time this section was updated. Minor clarifications.
Zack Weinberg bd09c76a 2020-09-18T13:40:20 Use WARNINGS=none to suppress warnings from autom4te runs. aclocal uses autom4te in trace mode to scan configure.ac for macros whose definition is not yet available. It has a kludge to prevent this from producing spurious warnings, but a cleaner, fully backward compatible, way to get the same effect is to set WARNINGS=none in the environment and not pass down any -W options. (This is better than passing -Wnone on the command line because it automatically inherits to any subprocesses started by autom4te.) Perl’s ‘local’ feature can be used to make the enviironment variable setting temporary, reverting to the previous value when we exit the function. automake also runs autom4te (technically autoconf) in trace mode; warnings from this invocation will not be *spurious*, but in the common case where the person running automake is going to run autoconf next, they will be duplicated. Therefore, make the same change to automake. * bin/aclocal.in (trace_used_macros) * bin/automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Use “local $ENV{WARNINGS}='none'” to suppress warnings from autom4te.
Zack Weinberg 22089fa6 2020-09-13T11:33:05 New utility function Automake::ChannelDefs::merge_WARNINGS. This function merges a list of warnings categories into the environment variable WARNINGS, returning a new value to set it to. The intended use is in code of the form { local $ENV{WARNINGS} = merge_WARNINGS ("this", "that"); # run a command here with WARNINGS=this,that,etc } This is not actually used in automake, but will be in autoconf. * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (merge_WARNINGS): New function.
Zack Weinberg 626727a8 2020-09-12T09:51:07 t/python-virtualenv.sh: Skip when versions don’t match On some operating systems ‘python’ is Python 2.x but ‘virtualenv -ppython’ will create a virtualenv that uses Python 3.x. This is a bug, but it’s not *automake’s* bug, and should not cause t/python-virtualenv.sh to fail. Skip the test, instead of failing it, when the inner=outer version check fails. (This also has nothing to do with the main goal of this patchset, it just annoyed me while I was testing.) * t/python-virtualenv.sh: Skip test, rather than failing it, when $py_version_pre != $py_version_post.
Zack Weinberg 74673d1c 2020-09-11T18:03:19 Consistently use ‘our’ instead of ‘use vars’. At file scope of a file containing at most one ‘package’ declaration, ‘use vars’ is exactly equivalent to ‘our’, and the latter is preferred starting with Perl 5.6.0, which happens to be the oldest version we support. (This change has nothing to do with the previous two, but I want to make the same change in Autoconf and that means doing it here for all the files synced from Automake.) (I don’t know why, but this change exposed a latent bug in FileUtils.pm where the last pod block in the file didn’t have a ‘=cut’ delimiter, so the code after it was considered documentation, causing ‘require FileUtils’ to fail.) * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm * lib/Automake/Channels.pm * lib/Automake/Condition.pm * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm * lib/Automake/General.pm * lib/Automake/Getopt.pm * lib/Automake/Options.pm * lib/Automake/Rule.pm * lib/Automake/RuleDef.pm * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm * lib/Automake/Variable.pm * lib/Automake/Wrap.pm * lib/Automake/XFile.pm: Replace all uses of ‘use vars’ with ‘our’. * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Add missing ‘=cut’ to a pod block near the end of the file.
Zack Weinberg 9ae8a896 2020-09-11T16:17:41 Consistently process -W(no-)error after all other warning options. automake and aclocal were processing ‘-W(no-)error’ whenever it appeared on the command line, which means that ‘-Werror,something-strange’ would issue a hard error, but ‘-Wsomething-strange,error’ would only issue a warning. It is not desirable for warnings about unknown warning categories ever to be treated as a hard error; that leads to problems for driver scripts like autoreconf, which would like to pass whatever -W options it got on its own command line down to all the tools and not worry about which tools understand which warning categories. Also, this sort of order dependence is confusing for humans. Change parse_warnings to take just one option, the _complete_ list of warning categories seen on the command line, and to process -Werror / -Wno-error after processing all other warnings options. Thus, unknown warnings categories will always just be a plain warning. This does mean aclocal has to stop using parse_warnings as a Getopt::Long callback, but that’s not a big deal. Similarly, change parse_WARNINGS to record whether ‘error’ appeared in the environment variable, but not activate warnings-are-errors mode itself. parse_warnings picks up the record and honors it, unless it’s overridden by the command line. * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm ($werror): New package global (not exported). (parse_WARNINGS): Do not call switch_warning for ‘error’ / ‘no-error’; just toggle the value of $werror. (parse_warnings): Do not call switch_warning immediately for ‘error’ / ‘no-error’; toggle $werror instead. Call switch_warning ‘error’ at the very end if $werror is true. Remove unused $OPTION argument. * bin/automake.in: parse_warnings now takes only one argument. * bin/aclocal.in: Call parse_warnings after parse_options instead of using it as a parse_options callback.
Zack Weinberg ab9ef6cf 2020-09-11T14:23:10 Sync ChannelDefs.pm from autoconf. ChannelDefs.pm *ought* to be kept in sync between automake and autoconf, because it defines the set of valid -W options, and autoreconf assumes that it can pass arbitrary -W options to all of the tools it invokes. However, it isn’t covered by either project’s ‘make fetch’ and it hasn’t actually *been* in sync for more than 17 years. This patch manually brings over all of the changes made on the autoconf side. Most importantly, there is a new warnings channel ‘cross’, for warnings related to cross-compilation. Also, the ‘usage’ function now *returns* the text to be put into a usage message, instead of printing it itself. (This is necessary on autoconf’s side.) * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Sync from autoconf. (cross): New warnings channel. (portability-recursive): Document. (usage): Now returns the text to be printed, instead of printing it. (parse_warnings): Second argument may now be a list.
Zack Weinberg 74a413ff 2020-09-05T18:12:48 automake: be robust against directories containing (). This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/14196. * m4/missing.m4 (AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN): always quote the invocation (not just if $am_aux_dir contains space or tab), in case $am_aux_dir contains () or other metachars not rejected by AM_SANITY_CHECK; quoting with '...' suggested by Jim Meyering. * t/man6.sh (HELP2MAN): adjust grep since missing value is quoted now. * t/am-missing-prog.sh: likewise.
