And it's very easy to miss out a test - I've just found out that ShortPrefixToStringStyleTest is not in the BuilderTestSuite. As it happens, one of its tests fails, so when I used Eclipse to run everything (at least twice, because of the suites - yuk!) I found the missing test class. There may be other missing tests - who knows? - and it's quite tedious finding out. > - Jörg > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
