b100d18d 2011-09-25 14:29:19 docs: don't suggest installing `.m4' files in hard-coded location This change fixes automake bug#7988. * doc/automake.texi (aclocal Options): State that the use of the `--print-ac-dir' option to determine the directory where third-party packages can install their `.m4' files is discouraged now. (Extending aclocal): Suggest telling the user about ACLOCAL_PATH. * THANKS: Update. Report by Peter Johansson.

7aea1eda 2011-09-19 11:28:42 docs: deprecate JAVA primary * doc/automake.texi (Java): Deprecate the JAVA primary, stating that it will become obsolete in automake 1.12 and probably removed altogether in automake 1.13. Reflect this in the section title, by appending the string "(deprecated feature)". (@menu, @detailmenu): Update. (Java Support with gcj): The cross-referenced support for bytecode compilation with the JAVA primary is rudimentary and deprecated. State that explicitly.

5e463108 2011-09-11 00:42:53 tests: fix spurious failure on fast machines * tests/aclocal-acdir.test: Avoid spurious failures due to caching issues, by cleaning the autom4te cache between all the aclocal invocations, and by always calling autoconf with the `--force' flag.
44123087 2011-09-10 23:16:50 aclocal: better URL reference in error message * aclocal.in (scan_file): In the error message about underquoted definitions, reference the automake page at `www.gnu.org', not at `sources.redhat.com'.
2d5a0d87 2011-09-01 17:42:41 coverage: distcheck-hook to catch missing/outdated *.m4 files Related to automake bug#9037. * tests/distcheck-missing-m4.test: New test. * tests/distcheck-outdated-m4.test: Likewise. * tests/distcheck-hook-m4.am: New data file, used by the new tests. * tests/Makefile.am (distcheck-m4-missing.log, distcheck-m4-outdated.log): Depend on it. (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute it. (TESTS): Add the new tests.
30f99cbd 2011-09-05 17:37:44 aclocal: more granularity in acdir overriding Before this change, using the `--acdir' option caused aclocal to redefine both the directory of automake-provided m4 macros and the directory of third-party system-wide m4 macros. With this change, we deprecate the `--acdir' aclocal option, and introduce two new options `--automake-acdir' and `--system-acdir', to allow for more granularity. * aclocal.in (@automake_includes, @system_includes, @user_includes): Fix and extend comments. (usage): Update. (handle_acdir_option): New function. (parse_arguments): Recognize new options `--system-acdir' and `automake-acdir', and handle `--acdir' using the new function above. Simplify logic by assuming that the directory of third-party system-wide m4 files always exists. * tests/aclocal.in: Update to use the new options, instead of the deprecated. `--acdir'. * m4/dirlist: Move ... * m4/acdir/dirlist: ... here. * m4/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Update. (m4datadir): Rename ... (automake_acdir): ... to this. Accordingly, ... (dist_m4data_DATA): ... rename this ... (dist_automake_ac_DATA): ... to this. (system_acdir): New, directory. (dist_system_ac_DATA): New, defined to an empty value; this will ensure that the $(system_acdir) directory will be created by "make install". * tests/aclocal.test: Remove check about the `--print-ac-dir' option of aclocal, it has been moved into ... * tests/aclocal-print-acdir.test: ... this new test, and quite extended. * tests/aclocal-acdir.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the new tests. * NEWS, bootstrap: Update. * doc/automake.texi (aclocal Options, Macro Search Path): Update.

e25ee588 2011-09-02 20:16:58 tests: simplify wrapper for aclocal * tests/aclocal.in: Remove use of $ACLOCAL_TESTSUITE_FLAGS and extra `-I' flags; they are not really required, since the file `m4/amversion.m4' is generated in the srcdir anyway. * tests/acloca10.test: Remove use of $ACLOCAL_TESTSUITE_FLAGS. * tests/acloca18.test: Likewise. * tests/defs.in: Don't nullify $ACLOCAL_TESTSUITE_FLAGS, and do not export it.

Fixes automake bug#9306.
b3afcecf 2011-08-12 18:29:28 parallel-tests: no more spurious successes for FreeBSD make Work around a bug of FreeBSD make bug that was causing the automake-generated "check" target to complete with success even if some tests failed; this happened only when FreeBSD make was run in concurrent mode (as in, e.g., "make -j2 check"). The bug is not present in NetBSD make. This change fixes automake bug#9245: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9245> See also FreeBSD PR bin/159730: <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=159730> * lib/am/check.am [%?PARALLEL_TESTS%] $(TEST_SUITE_LOG): Use a more "safe" (and apparently redundant) idiom to exit with error, so that the non-zero exit status is picked up also by FreeBSD make when it's running in concurrent mode. * NEWS: Update. * tests/check-concurrency-bug9245.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
35a0689d 2011-08-11 23:24:53 hacking: we now require autoconf 2.68 * HACKING ("Working in git"): Use autoconf and autom4te 2.68, not 2.67, in the examples.
c7c62a4a 2011-08-08 14:39:16 test defs: more environment cleanup * tests/defs.in: Also unset variables AM_COLOR_TESTS and AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT.

f4e516e6 2011-08-03 16:35:49 maintcheck: fix maintainer-check failures, both real and spurious * tests/amhello-binpkg.test: Use "$MAKE", not bare "make". * Makefile.am (sc_perl_local): Also allow perl special variable `$~' to be localized. And be slightly laxer in the regexp, to allow for usages like "local $_ = $foo;". (sc_tests_overriding_macros_on_cmdline): Also allow for command line overriding of the `DISABLE_HARD_ERRORS' make variable. Try to avoid false positives for usages like "$MAKE || st=$?".

3680f7de 2011-07-23 15:09:23 tests: relax a test on amhello examples to cater to Solaris tar * tests/amhello-binpkg.test: When the tar implementation in use is not GNU tar, relax the tests on tar output, to avoid spurious failures. For example, "tar cvf ..." with GNU tar can output lines like "./usr/bin/hello" on the standard output, while with Solaris tar it can output lines like "a ./usr/bin/hello 8K" on standard output, and with Heirloom tar it can output lines like "a ./usr/bin/hello 15 tape blocks" on standard error.

9667c39a 2011-06-24 09:15:14 Revert "docs: parallel-tests is not experimental anymore" This reverts commit a9eef973b5ea47cc3495f1a8307d4f7b85aea46f. It turned out that the current work to introduce TAP and SubUnit support in Automake-generated testsuite harnesses will probably require the introduction of slight incompatibilities in the 'parallel-tests' behaviour, starting from release 1.12 onward. So it's advisable to continue to characterize the 'parallel-tests' support as "experimental" in maintenance release 1.11.2. Suggestion from Ralf Wildenhues.

Thus, color each line of the check report by its own. * lib/am/check.am (am__text_box): Accept colors for lines, and color each line by its own. [%?PARALLEL_TESTS%] $(TEST_SUITE_LOG): Let am__text_box handle the line coloring. [!%?PARALLEL_TESTS%] $(check-TESTS): Color each report line by its own. * THANKS: Update.

This improves the test script execution time by an order of magnitude. Since we are at it, throw in some other improvements to avoid unrelated automake warnings and failures that could potentially cause false positives w.r.t. the automake exit status.

Update comments accordingly. Since we are at it, make the relevant grepping rules slightly tighter.
97600392 2011-06-10 12:26:42 distcheck: add support for AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS * doc/automake.texi (Checking the Distribution): Suggest to use AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS, not DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS, to define (in the top-level Makefile.am) extra flags to be passed to configure at "make distcheck" time; DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS should be reserved for the user. Add proper `@vindex' directive. Document that AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS is not honoured in a subpackage Makefile.am, but the flags in it are passed down to the configure script of the subpackage. * lib/am/distdir.am (distcheck): Also pass the flags in $(AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS) to the configure invocation. Update comments. * tests/defs.in.test (AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS, DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS): Unset in case they are exported in the environment, they might improperly influence our testsuite. * tests/distcheck-configure-flags.test: New test. * tests/distcheck-configure-flags-am.test: Likewise. * tests/distcheck-configure-flags-subpkg.test: Likewise. * distcheck-hook.test: Likewise. * distcheck-hook2.test: Likewise. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

(Silent Make): ... into this new chapter, expanded, improved, and subdivided into ... (Make verbosity, Tricks For Silencing Make, Automake silent-rules Option): ... these new sections. (@menu, @detailmenu): Update. * tests/silent-configsite.test: New test, checking that the user can control default mode of silent-rules from config.site, as is documented in the manual. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated.

429b748c 2011-06-08 22:00:38 py-compile: normalize error and help messages * lib/py-compile: Now error messages do not begin with a capital letter, nor end with a period, as per GNU standards. Prepend the error messages with the name of the script, not with its path. When an invalid usage is recognized, always display the customary message "Try `py-compile --help' ..." on a line of its own. ($me): New variable, containing the name of the program, i.e., `py-compile'. Use it throughout. (usage_error): New function, used to display error messages about invalid usage. * tests/py-compile-usage.test: Extend and tighten accordingly.

dd8b570a 2011-06-08 14:55:01 py-compile: the '--destdir' option now accepts a blank argument * lib/py-compile (Option parsing): Do not count an empty argument to `--destdir' or `--basedir' as a missing argument. * lib/python.am: Simplify accordingly, passing the `--destdir' option to py-compile unconditionally, even if `$(DESTDIR)' is empty. * NEWS: Update.
b46debf5 2011-06-08 14:33:49 python: run the 'py-compile' script with $(SHELL) * lib/python.am (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Run each instance of py-compile using $(SHELL). Since we are at it, break overly long lines. (am__py_compile): New variable, to reduce code duplication.
5b7c6b4c 2011-06-07 15:24:11 test defs: new function 'fatal_', for hard errors Before this patch, the only way offered by tests/defs to properly signal a hard error was the `framework_failure_' function. But the error message issued by that function, as its name would suggest, refers to a set-up failure in the testsuite, while hard errors can obviously also be due to other reasons. The best way to fix this inconsistency is to introduce a new function with a more general error message. Inspired by a recent similar change to Gnulib's tests/init.sh. * tests/defs.in (fatal_): New function. * tests/README (Section "Writing test cases" subsection "Do"): Suggest the use of `fatal_', not of `framework_failure_', for generic hard errors. The latter should be reserved for "real" set-up failures.
