Re: [GnuCOBOL 3.1.2] testsuite: 19 20 21 23 783 796 1033 failed

[Simon Sobisch]

Hi Jim and welcome to GnuCOBOL.

the attached testsuite.log shows for all failing tests entries like

+dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libcob.4.dylib
+  Referenced from: 
/Users/jimherod/Downloads/gnucobol-3.1.2/tests/testsuite.dir/0019/./prog
+  Reason: image not found

so it does not use the generated library as it should. This may be 
related to some MacOS setting, if anyone knows about this please drop a 
note.
It would be useful if you could try to adjust tests/atlocal to see which 
adjustments of the paths or otherwise - if any - do work.


That said: after `make install` those tests are likely to pass.
Note because your setup does not include any JSON handler: you may 
consider to either install libcjson on your system or drop the following 
two files into your "libcob" folder to use a "static" version of cJSON:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DaveGamble/cJSON/v1.7.15/cJSON.c
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DaveGamble/cJSON/v1.7.15/cJSON.h

But that's  just an optional module, still "JSON GENERATE" may be a 
useful thing in your GnuCOBOL installation.
