When you file it please shoot me an email, I'd like to vote for this feature.
Another idea if you are up to it is to add a watchdog to your own test, it's as simple as using alarm(3) and making a SIGALRM handler that invokes pstree and gdb however you like. You could make the timeout slightly shorter than the ctest timeout and probably get good results. On Sun, Feb 9, 2014 at 4:22 AM, Rolf Eike Beer <[email protected]> wrote: > Am Sonntag, 9.
