Hi Guys,

First off let me say im impressed how far Smoke has gone since I last sent a
mail to you folks.

Congrats, and nice work.

A few comments, and issues though for Win32 and dotNet.

configsmoke.pl dies if you dont specify a path to archive your smokes in.

On win32/dotNet VS 6 etc, unless you copy the enviornment vars from
VCVARS32/VSVARS32 into the registry, and/or remember to run one of them
before you start smoking or configuring the correct paths will not be
searched and the various tools needed will not be found.

On win32 at least it would be very convenient in the configuration to have a
"pretest" option to automatically load VSVARS32 before it proceeds with the
actual smoke. I hacked the generated batch file to call VSVARS32 first and
everything worked fine.

Unfortunately fine is a relative term :-( The smoke did _not_ in fact work
fine. It identified a few errors and then hung around io/openpid.t However
when I do a build by hand using the same makefile that smoke used it passes
all tests with flying colors.  Ive reviewed the code, but its hard to tell
what or where this is caused and I dont have a lot of time to analyze it.
It appears to not be segfaulting, just plain and simple hanging. But I cant
figure out why. :-(

Any help getting this set up would be appreciated.

Yves
