	b9b79d88	2011-10-06T21:30:04		parallel-tests: don't allow @substitutions@ in TEST_EXTENSIONS Even after the last commit `v1.11-476-g90bea64', the checks performed by automake on entries in $(TEST_EXTENSIONS) tried to allow for @substitited@ stuff. This however ends up allowing quite brittle setups, which, most importantly, are of no real practical usefulness anyway. So it's better to just disallow @substitutions@ in TEST_EXTENSIONS altogether, offering a clear error message, instead of risking weird bugs and unexpected behaviors in the generated Makefile.in. * automake.in ($TEST_EXTENSION_PATTERN): Turned from a regular expression ... (is_valid_test_extension): ... into this subroutine. Don't allow generic @substitutions@ anymore (possibly making an exception for `@EXEEXT@' under the proper circumstances). * tests/test-extensions.test: Adjust and extend.
	90bea64b	2011-10-01T21:31:07		parallel-tests: automake error our on invalid TEST_EXTENSIONS This change fixes automake bug#9400. * automake.in (handle_tests): Bail out if a suffix specified in TEST_EXTENSIONS would produce an invalid `xxx_LOG_COMPILER' variable or an invalid suffix rule. Before this change, automake would have issued a confusing error messages (about invalid or non-POSIX variables being defined), and in some situations would have even produced a broken `Makefile.in' file. ($TEST_EXTENSION_PATTERN): New helper variable. * doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests using parallel-tests): Document the limitations on TEST_EXTENSIONS explicitly. * NEWS: Update. * tests/test-extensions.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
