I tried it and it doesn't work - I think because ovs-vsctl is producing no output and the AT_CHECK requires a newline. It's a bit hackish but can make work with echo `...` - what do you think? --- a/tests/ovs-vsctl.at +++ b/tests/ovs-vsctl.at @@ -769,7 +769,7 @@ AT_CHECK( ]) m4_define([VSCTL_CHECK_FIND], - [AT_CHECK([ovs-vsctl --bare --timeout=5 --no-wait -vreconnect:emer --db=unix:socket -- --columns=name find bridge '$1' | sort | xargs echo], [0], [$2 + [AT_CHECK([echo `ovs-vsctl --bare --timeout=5 --no-wait -vreconnect:emer --db=unix:socket -- --columns=name find bridge '$1' | sort`], [0], [$2 ])]) # Arithmetic relational operators without keys. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
