RE: [Asunit-users] AsUnit Meets XULRunner v.2.7 alpha released!

I'd be interested to hear if anybody has this successfully working on =
Linux.  I ran really quickly through the install instructions.  The =
builder comes up, I can browse the file system, etc etc, everything =
looks good there.  Actually trying to create the class, it tries to tell =
me that access is denied, and it's unable to write the file.  =
Permissions shouldn't be an issue, but I busted them wide open anyway =
for any involved directory, with no effect.
=20
I'll set this up on my Windows box tomorrow and make sure I'm not being =
a total noob.  If at that point I see inconsistent behavior between =
Windows and Linux, and nobody has come forward saying this is working =
for them on that platform, I'll post again with more info.

Subject: [Asunit-users] AsUnit Meets XULRunner v.2.7 alpha released!


Hey Folks,

AsUnit is proud to announce a long-awaited iteration in the works!

We have an alpha release of what will ultimately be version 2.7 of =
AsUnit!

This development build includes a new XULRunner user interface for =
presenting the AsUnit UI and *dramatically* improved Create Class / =
Build Test Suites / Create Test Case functionality! We are no longer =
tied to the IDE and should work completely independently on any =
operating system (Including Linux)! This build should also integrate =
seamlessly into any development tools or processes!

We have also included a dramatic performance boost related to the =
transmission of test results over local connection. No more waiting for =
those dots to draw!

We have only tested the development build on Win XP, but the =
infrastructure is all built on the Mozilla platform, so it *should* be =
very easy to get it working on Mac and even Linux - we need your help to =
find those cross platform issues...

Please check it out and let us know what you think!

The installation process for the development build is pretty loose right =
now, but the final release will integrate with XULRunner, Mozilla and =
Firefox as a single-click installation for all platforms...

work and I can't do a thing.=20

Hey Don,

The directories that you have where the application.ini file resides should=
=20
already have anonymous cvs files in them. You should be able to simply go t=
o=20
that directory and enter "cvs update" from the command prompt. After that -=
=20
just do "xulrunner application.ini" to see the new code and you should be=
=20
fine.

I believe you're absolutely correct about the entry. I have updated the=20
sources to use 0750 so the real version might actually work at this point.

If you do need to tweak that param, it's in:

xulCreateClass/chrome/createclass/script/CreateClass.js
approx. line 6:
CreateClass.LINUX_PERMISSIONS =3D 0750;

If it needs to change, please let me know what works and I'll be sure to=20
update the sources over here.

(FYI: Sourceforge is down right now so I'm unable to make that commit, but=
=20
it should be done shortly...)


Thanks again,

Hey Don,

I think I know what's causing the problem... It's a one-liner.

There was an argument for the nsiFile.create argument that talked about=20
linux file permissions and I couldn't figure out what would be an=20
appropriate value. It seemed to work on windows so I didn't spend any time=
=20
on it...

Here is the reference:
http://xulplanet.com/references/xpcomref/ifaces/nsIFile.html

Based on this information:
"*permissions:* The unix style octal permissions. This may be ignored on=20
systems that do not need to do permissions."

I couldn't figure out an appropriate parameter value, so I put in a zero an=
d=20
it worked. If you wouldn't mind doing a little hacking, you're welcome to=
=20
search the source for "create(" and try some other ints in there...

I would be immensely greatful if you get that working and maybe send me a=
=20
.patch file or just let me know what to put in there!

Thanks,

Hey Don,

Please disregard my last request...

We have gone into CVS and changed the permissions parameter to use a static=
=20
member which is:

CreateClass.LINUX_PERMISSIONS =3D 7;

If you could please do a CVS update on the directory where you find the=20
application.ini file, you should retreive the changed files.

If you still have problems, please change that parameter value which is=20
found in:

chrome/createclass/script/CreateClass.js=20
(near the top of the file)

Any mac users out there getting any love? (or no love for that matter)
