In this test we start up a cmake script that runs a process that sleeps,
and the timeout for the script is shorter than the sleep time. However,
in order to properly detect that the sleeping grandchild is killed when
the script times out we need to give sufficient time for the script to
start the grandchild. Otherwise the log file for the grandchild is not
available.
On some (cygwin) builds our previous 1 second timeout for the script was
not long enough to let the interpreter load and start the grandchild.
We make the timeout time configurable by setting CTestTestTimeout_TIME
in the cache for CMake itself. It tells the test how long to let the
script run. The grandchild always sleeps for 4 seconds longer to ensure
a comfortable window during which the process tree can be killed.
This test requires that the dashboard script it drives be invoked with
"ctest -C <config> -S ...". We create a "CTestTest_CONFIG" variable to
hold a configuration selected at test time. We use the configuration
given to the outer CTest, if any, and then default to either Debug or
the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.
We extend the CTestTestTimeout test to check that when a test times out
its children (grandchildren of ctest) are killed. Instead of running
the timeout executable directly, we run it through a cmake script that
redirects the timeout executable output to a file. A second test later
runs and verifies that the timeout executable was unable to complete and
write data to the log file. Only if the first inner test times out and
the second inner test passes (log is empty) does the CTestTestTimeout
test pass.
The commit "Fake $HOME to isolate tests from user" started setting $HOME
in the CTest script environment. On some platforms tests depend on some
local configuration in the home directory, such as the "cvs login" for
KWSys in CTestTest3.
In this commit we now construct a fake home dir during CMake config step
and populate it with a .cvspass file needed by the test. We also check
CTEST_NO_TEST_HOME to optionally disable the test home.
See issue #9949.
On platforms with $HOME in the environment, some of our features use it
to store information in the user home directory. However, tests for
these features should not touch the real user home directory. Instead
we configure a fake $HOME that points inside the build tree for use
during testing.
See issue #9949.
The commit "Fix get_filename_component ABSOLUTE mode" broke REALPATH
treatment of relative paths because it stopped storing the absolute path
in local variable 'filename'. This commit fixes the call to GetRealPath
to use the proper local variable and adds a test.
Some compilers use implicit link options of the form
-lcrt*.o
-lgcc*
-lSystem (on Mac)
-lSystemStubs (on Mac)
that provide system-wide symbols not specific to any language.
These need not be listed explicitly for mixed-language linking.
We teach CMake to remove the above items from the implicit library list
of each language. This change makes it possible to mix GNU compiler
versions in some cases.
This allows for a built in bzip and zip capability, so external tools
will not be needed for these packagers. The cmake -E tar xf should be
able to handle all compression types now as well.
The commit "Test per-config OUTPUT_DIRECTORY properties" added this test
with a find_library() call in a CMake script, which requires an explicit
list of possible library prefixes and suffixes. This commit adds more
suffixes to match the libraries built on HP, MinGW, and Cygwin.
We test (ARCHIVE|LIBRARY|RUNTIME)_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG> properties
by building COnly as a subdirectory and setting the properties to put
its files in specific locations. We build an executable that verifies
the targets actually appear where expected.
The BuildDepends test exercises incremental linking with MSVC and Intel
tools on Windows. In some cases the Intel compiler creates objects that
cause the MS linker it invokes to crash during incremental linking. We
avoid the problem for this test by disabling incremental linking.
We introduce the "CMake.If" test to try out conversion of constants and
variables to boolean values in the if() command. We cover both OLD and
NEW behavior for policy CMP0012.
