| |
| <p>Before you install egcs, you might wish to run the egcs testsuite; this |
| step is optional and may require you to download additional software. |
| |
| <p>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. |
| |
| <p>Second, you must have a new version of dejagnu on your system; dejagnu-1.3 |
| will not work. We have made a |
| <a href="ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/egcs/infrastructure/dejagnu-971028.tar.gz"> |
| dejagnu snapshot</a> available in ftp.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs/infrastructure until |
| a new version of dejagnu can be released. |
| |
| <p>Assuming you've got the testsuites unpacked and have installed an appropriate |
| dejagnu, you can run the testsuite with "cd <i>objdir</i>; make -k check". |
| This may take a long time. Go get some lunch. |
| |
| <p>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. |
