Hi, I need volunteers on any platform, but especially Windows, to compile and run the tests for Stackless 2.6.4. My Windows Vista install is growing flakier as time passes, and I am loathe to reinstall or try to clean it up. As such I get false positive test failures whenever I do a merge, although I can usually rule them out.
In any case, here are the instructions: 1. svn export http://svn.python.org/projects/stackless/branches/release26-maint Platform specific compilation instructions: 2. cd release26-maint 2a. On linux: ./configure ... edit Modules/Setup to enable things like zlib and cPickle ... make 2b. On windows: ... Open PCbuild solution with Visual Studio ... Platform specific Python test suite instructions: 3a. On linux: ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py 3b. On windows: PCbuild\python.exe Lib\test\regrtest.py Platform specific Stackless test suite instructions: 4a. On linux: ./python Stackless/unittest/runAll.py 4b. On windows: PCbuild\python.exe Stackless\unittest\runAll.py If on running the Stackless test suite you get a test failure about "Leakage from other tests", please ignore it. This is a true claim, but does not represent any problem other than the test suite needing some clean up. On getting the thumbs up from enough people, I will do the release for Stackless 2.6.4, hopefully including the recently submitted patch. Cheers, Richard. _______________________________________________ Stackless mailing list [email protected] http://www.stackless.com/mailman/listinfo/stackless
