Ralf Wildenhues 66c2dcaa 2009-03-11T23:55:26 parallel-tests: per-extension test driver: <EXT>_LOG_COMPILER. For test files with extension <ext>, introduce the internal variable <EXT>_LOG_COMPILE, which expands to $(<EXT>_LOG_COMPILER) $(AM_<EXT>_LOG_FLAGS) $(<EXT>_LOG_FLAGS). Turn also the lib/Automake/tests testsuite over to the new test driver. * doc/automake.texi (Tests): Document `EXT_LOG_COMPILER' and `EXT_LOG_FLAGS'. * lib/am/check2.am: Insert `%COMPILE%' right before test. * automake.in (handle_tests): Substitute `COMPILE' for check2, empty for tests without extension, and `$(ext_LOG_COMPILE)' for extension `ext'. In the latter case, define it from the public components. * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use `parallel-test' globally. * tests/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Remove, not needed here any more. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Split ... (PL_LOG_COMPILER, PL_LOG_FLAGS): ... into these new variables. (TESTS_EXTENSIONS): New variable, initialize to `.pl'. * tests/parallel-tests7.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
