Sorry to pop in at the end of this discussion. When I first implemented the ctest stuff I wondered about doing away with the scripts and doing all the work in ctest. Advantages: Should be more platform independent. You would be able to see at a glance precisely which tests failed rather than just knowing one of the tests for a given language failed. Disadvantages: More work for me in the first instance. We want the scripts anyway for installing in the examples tree so users can test the examples easily. The scripts are not terribly sophisticated on the whole. The most important requirement is just to set the right paths for libraries etc. Perhaps a batch file will do. At least we know that will run on every windows system then. Andrew ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
