Re: [cdt-dev] Suggestions for dealing with tests

Hi,

The preprocessor is not run in a specific language. In case there needs to be different behavior for C and C++ you need to introduce an option which should be controlled via IScannerExtensionConfiguration (The GPPLanguage and the GCCLanguage provide different objects for this configuration). The testcase needs to be elaborated to test with the two different configurations.

For the case, where we allow user defined literals the checkNumber method needs to behave differently. I also think that the classification of the number literals in the lexer needs to be changed, however it can be done, such that it works independently of whether user-defined literals are allowed or not.

My recommendation is to neither introduce new kinds of tokens nor to create a new IASTNode. I think it is sufficient to let CPPASTLiteralExpression implement IASTImplicitNameOwner, which allows to provide the references to the implicit function calls.  

The tests nested in org.eclipse.cdt.core.suite.AutomatedIntegrationSuite should all pass.

Markus.

Subject: [cdt-dev] Suggestions for dealing with tests

 

Hello all,

I've been working on getting user-defined literals working syntactically for the past week, I believe I'm in the home stretch as I'm now working through the failing test cases under org.eclipse.cdt.core.tests. 

I have a few questions regarding this. 

 

- Firstly, how do I deal with tests that are supposed to fail in C mode, but pass in C++ mode?

The current test that demonstrates this is PerprocessorTests.testGCC43BinaryNumbers. 

There are 5 binary literals that are tested for failing: 0b012, 0b01b, 0b1111e01, 0b1111p10, 0b10010.10010

With UDLs the first and the last of these should fail, and the middle three can be considered binary literals with UDL suffixes. But in C mode, or C++ sans UDL, they all should fail. Is there a way to test which language the current test is being run in?

 

- Lastly, I've been testing my branch against master, and I've noticed there are a fair number of tests with errors or failing. Is this expected, or do I have my project set up incorrectly?

 

Thank, Richard
