[gobo-eiffel-develop] Progress report on ST_STRING

[Colin P. A. <co...@co...>]

Today I have managed to get all the XPath test suite to compile and
run using ST_STRING. Two of the tests are failing. These are both
regular expression tests where dotall mode isn't working. As the
regular expression stuff isn't correct anyway, I'm not too concerned
about this for the moment.

What does concern me is that the elapsed time for running the tests
(excluding the compile time) with gec has doubled (from .33 to .66 of
a second). So prospects don't look good at the moment.
