Dear GSL-help I have encountered errors when running the test.c unit test in ROOTS supplied by GSL.
A bit of background. I have downloaded the GSL source code and compiled it for both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows. I've used MS VC to compile since we have this already and wanted to prove that our porting works before using another compiler like Intel C/C++. Then I ran the tests on selected packages in GSL. These are the test.c files supplied in the folder of each of the packages. The tests which have been successful are: cdf, specfun, rng, randist, eigen, sort, min, multimin, poly. The packages which Failed are: roots, multiroots. As an example, the error messages from running test.c in roots is: FAIL: [1021695] FAIL: [1021697] FAIL: [1021699] FAIL: [1021712] FAIL: [1021714] FAIL: [1021726] FAIL: [1021728] FAIL: [1021730] FAIL: [1021756] FAIL: [1021757] FAIL: [1021758] FAIL: [1021760] FAIL: [1021762] FAIL: [1021764] I know there may be no official support for my own GSL Windows port. But I would like to ask some general questions. 1. Has anyone encountered any errors while running the roots/test.c? I assume, this test is run before GSL release its distribution - but I just want to ask anyway - and also maybe other users have tried this test.c themselves. 2. The error message above seems to be in a particular format. How do I interpret them so I can poke around the code myself to debug? What do the numbers actually represent? Thanks for your help. _______________________________________ Commonwealth Bank Clinton Chee Manager, Quantitative Analytics Risk Management Centre Lvl 14, Darling Park, 201 Sussex Street, Sydney NSW 2000 M: 0402 058 983 P: 61 (0)2 9117 7544 F: 61 (0)2 9118 6509, 1300 711 441 E: [email protected] Our vision is to be Australia's finest financial services organisation through excelling in customer service. ************** IMPORTANT MESSAGE ***************************** This e-mail message is intended only for the addressee(s) and contains information which may be confidential.
