Thanks for having a look at the tests and the input on antlr! Yeah I meant just the new failing tests. I'm dealing with a failing test on Oracle, which generated some followup failures that I'm looking at now.
I don't think we should do anything about relinq right now. For the future, it does open the questioin; should the nuget-build and the sourceforge-build be different? I.e. the nuget nhibernate would depend on the nuget relinq, while the sourceforge nhibernate.dll would have it embedded? /Oskar 2014-08-01 4:35 GMT+02:00 Patrick Earl <hyn...@gmail.com>: > For the unit tests, I fixed the clean builds that didn't previously have > tons of failing tests.
