-- removed the CROSS compilation support. It should work with a different build tree, but I haven't tested that
Works just fine, thanks! Interestingly, yesterday evening I got all kinds of problems, like the build process trying to run WINDRES=false in the elf tree and other silly things. :)
-- removed striping the tests from the build. This wasn't right for multiple reasons:
- it was using a hardcoded 'strip' command instead of the configure one
What about the following in maketest(s? cf. 8.3)
STRIP="$3" DLLEXT="$4" [...] filename="$BINDIR/${test}_test.exe$DLLEXT" [...] $STRIP -s $filename
and in Makefile.in (cf. tests.list vs 8.3 again):
winetest.rc: maketest tests.list $(SRCDIR)/maketest -r $(SRCDIR)/tests.list "$(STRIP)" "$(DLLEXT)" > $@ || ( $(RM) $@ && exit 1 )
- it seems strange that building winetest should magically affect all the tests
Maybe. But nothing depends on those, so I can't see it cause problems. And stripping reduces the final size of the program by an order of magnitude! It counts on a not-so-wide download link.
- why should we strip every time
Stripping stripped programs doesn't take much time or effort.
Maybe we should replace this with an explicitmake strip-tests or some such. Suggestins are welcome.
Another possibility is to $STRIP -s -o ${testname}_test.exe$DLLEXT $filename It's sterile, but I'm not sure if it's better.
But I think it looks decent enough that it can go in, so we can start sending small incremental patches to it.
Shall not we put copyright notices into the files?
- if (remove (logname))
fatal (strmake (NULL, "Can't remove logfile: %d.", errno));
Maybe a warning would be enough here, too... :) Not that it makes any difference, of course.
Best wishes, Feri.
