RE: Compiling and running a test tool

[Nicola Pero]

Thanks ... a test-tool is exactly the same as a tool; the only
difference is that 'make install' does nothing. :-)

So it's standard stuff --

include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/common.make

TEST_TOOL_NAME = test
test_OBJC_FILES = foo.m

include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/test-tool.make

At which point, 'make' will compile the tool.

Thanks

PS: 'make test' will work too, gnustep-make will recognize 'test'
as the name of one of the tools and will compile that one.

Subject: Compiling and running a test tool

Hi,

I can compile and run a test tool consisting of a single source file by
invoking "make test" using a GNUmakefile like this

include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/common.make

foo_OBJC_FILES=foo.m

include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/test-tool.make

test:
        ./obj/foo


which is pretty sweet. Trouble is, how do you extend this to a test tool
which
is spread over multiple source files?

Or a test tool which depends on another tool build beforehand?

The obvious thing to try was:

thing_OBJC_FILES=foo.m bar.m

include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/test-tool.make

test:
       ./obj/thing

but that doesn't work at all. Changing that depends to

test: thing

means it will all compile and link sweetly but won't be run.

It's getting late and my brain is slow.

Help anyone?


Regards,
Sheldon
