Hi, I debugged it but up to now I don't know what is wrong with. I made make clean && make check in the gengetopt 2.21 tests directory, log attached.
I found only one FAILED test: test_conf_parser_err_string.sh and not the one Lorenzo mentioned below: > > concerning the patch for config file, my tests for config file parsers > fail: > > > > test_conf_parser:./test_conf.conf:7: malformed string in configuration > file > > FAIL: test_conf_parser.sh > > could you please check this? test_conf_parser_err_string.sh contains two test cases (attached): - first the test_conf_parser sample is executed on test_conf_err_string.conf - if it passes the previous test(!) then it will be tested against test_conf_err_string2.conf Each test_conf file contains malformed strings. I suspect that the second testcase had never ran before. Before applying my patch gengetopt rejected lines similar to this one from test_conf_err_string.conf multi-string = mal"formed" My patch accepts this argument and treated as a valid string value as is (mal"formed") for the option 'multi-string'. That's why the next never executed testcase will fire, too, but it contains an invalid string value: multi-string = "unterminated I really hope I shed some light now. Is there any other volunteer to confirm my experience? _______________________________________________ Help-gengetopt mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gengetopt
