  • tklib test suite failure on CVS head

    I configure and install tklib, then I type: $ gmake test /projects/sprs_lwv/tcl86/bin/tclsh8.6 `echo ../sak.tcl` test Command missing test -- Execute testsuites sak test run ?-s|--shell PATH? ?-l|--log STEM? ?-g|--valgrind? ?-v? ?MODULE ...? Run the testsuites of the specified modules, using the shell running SAK for the testsuites as well. If no modules...

  • re_syntax.n formats incorrectly on Solaris 8

    Platform SPARC Solaris 8 When I run man -s n re_syntax I see the text between CONSTRAINTS and BACK REFERENCES jumbled up with displaying control characters, etc. This is quite different than what I see with the other Tcl man pages I've viewed. I am attempting to attach a file with the formatted text in it to this artifact.

  • additional hyperlinks in online formatted man pages requeste

    When I look at the www pages at http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TclCmd/ I notice that in some cases - maybe all cases - references such as "see FREE FORM SCAN for a description of what happens" are not hyperlinks to the section referenced. It would really be nice if the "see AAA" type references would hyperlink to the section in question.

  • TWAPI and TEA?

    One of the useful resources in the Tcl community is the ActiveState teapot repository. It allows Tcl users to easily obtain a copy of a useful extension. Right now, TWAPI is not a part of that repository. When I asked ActiveState about it, I was told that the last time they checked, TWAPI didn't use the TEA build structure. The ActiveState build process depends on TEA to provide a standard...

  • Comment: oratcl test suite nit - orainfo-1.0 test vails

    When I go into tests/defs.tcl and change the -exact 4.5 to 4.6, then the orainfo passes. The other stuff continues to fail - I could send you the output from the test suite if you would like.

  • Comment: oratcl test suite nit - orainfo-1.0 test vails

    Interesting. I indeed did have an Oratcl 4.5 installed. When I moved it so that it would not be found, I now get this error from the oratcl cvs head: $ gmake test LD_LIBRARY_PATH=".:/vol/tclsrcsol/tcl86/tcl/unix:/usr/sfw/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/dt/lib/sdtimage:/usr/openwin/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/ucblib:/cas/lib/sun4:/vol/ora_client/product/10.2.0.2/lib"...

  • oratcl test suite nit - orainfo-1.0 test vails

    This test was using the Tcl 8.6 CVS head as well as the oratcl CVS head. The code was built on SPARC Solaris 8 using Sun's C compiler as well as Oracle 10.2.0.4.0. ==== orainfo-1.0 orainfo: version FAILED ==== Contents of test case: catch {orainfo version} res set res ---- Result was: 4.5 ---- Result should have been (exact matching): 4.6 ==== orainfo-1.0 FAILED.
