To fix the classes.all testsuite requires going through and fixing the results after testing with the Adobe player. It has completely nothing to do with haxe or with our AVM2 code. I spent quite a while running the tests with the Adobe player and posted the results of failing tests. Some tests pass when the SWF9 version is run and fail when lower versions are run. Some do the opposite. What I fail to understand is why you complain to me instead of getting it fixed. I'm sure everyone understands that having accurate results in the testsuite is essential to avoid breaking Gnash. The fact that you've been "using them" doesn't make them correct. On the contrary, the fact that some tests return incorrect results means that they contribute to getting things wrong. The work that's been done over the summer has been partly very good from all the interns. Anyone new to hacking on Gnash is also bound to make mistakes. But that does not mean that it's acceptable for Gnash's testsuite to be left in a mess. And despite my having to fix it several times a week all summer, it still doesn't complete, precisely due to some of those errors in the classes.all testsuite. bwy -- Free Flash, use Gnash http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ Benjamin Wolsey, Software Developer - http://benjaminwolsey.de
