Dear Rony et al,
on macOS/Darwin the testsuite could not locate the samples any more following
the move from .../ooRexx to .../ooRexx/samples, here one example:
[failure] 20211012 22:35:08.684320
svn: r12223 Change date: 2021-03-31 21:12:04 +0200
Test: TEST_USECOMP
Class: USECOMP.TESTGROUP
File: .../ooRexx/samples/usecomp.testGroup
Line: 63
Failed: assertNotNil
Expected: not .nil
Actual: .nil
Interpreter: REXX-ooRexx_5.0.0(MT)_64-bit 6.05 12 Oct 2021
OS Name: DARWIN
SysVersion: Darwin 17.7.0
I have amended locateSamplePrg() in Fileutils.cls and amended
do samples over "samples/", "../samples/", "../share/ooRexx/",
"../Shared/ooRexx/"
to
do samples over "samples/", "../samples/", "../share/ooRexx/samples/",
"../Shared/ooRexx/samples/"
And now the samples can be found again on macOS/Darwin
I think the comments in locateSamplePrg() may need some cleaning up but since I
did not write them I leave it to the originator (Rony?) to check and amend if
necessary.
Hälsningar/Regards/Grüsse,
P.O. Jonsson
