| Testing egcs-1.0.3 |
| |
| Before you install egcs, you might wish to run the egcs testsuite; |
| this step is optional and may require you to download additional |
| software. |
| |
| First, you must have downloaded the egcs testsuites; the full |
| distribution contains testsuites. If you downloaded the "core" |
| compiler plus any front ends, then you do not have the testsuites. You |
| can download the testsuites from the same site where you downloaded |
| the core distribution and language front ends. |
| |
| Second, you must have a new version of dejagnu on your system; |
| dejagnu-1.3 will not work. We have made a [1]dejagnu snapshot |
| available in egcs.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs/infrastructure until a new |
| version of dejagnu can be released. |
| |
| Assuming you've got the testsuites unpacked and have installed an |
| appropriate dejagnu, you can run the testsuite with "cd objdir; make |
| -k check". This may take a long time. Go get some lunch. |
| |
| The testing process will try to test as many components in the egcs |
| distrubution as possible, including the C, C++ and Fortran compiler as |
| well as the C++ runtime libraries. |
| |
| How to interpret test results TBD. |
