RE: Unit test code in HARMONY-16

2006-01-13 Thread Loenko, Mikhail Y

I think the immediate goal should be to make the 'security2' code a replacement for 'security'. Since security is part of the componentized-build bootstrapping code (i.e. required to run the compiler in self-hosting mode) then we need to integrate the security2 build script with the
