Re: [platform-releng-dev] Automated tests dependency on unzip
|
From the most current documentation that I could find, Ant zip does not
retain Unix file permissions.

Yes there is a reason we where using unzip instead of built in ant support.
The Ant zip and unzip does not preserve file permissions. Not an issue on
Windows but a big issue on Unix platforms since we loose execute
permissions on shared libraries, executable etc.
I know that this is still an issue for the actual build and I presume it is
still an issue for the automated tests. However, we will double check just
to make sure we are not moving around obsolete assumptions.

dependency on unzip

I don't know if anybody cares about this or not (probably not...), but I've
modified the test.xml & runtests.bat so that they no longer need unzip.
This is nice for windows users whose machines don't have unzip, but most
likely have ant installed. (read: this removes the dependency on unzip, but
adds a dependency on ant)
I created a separate ant build script called unzip.xml. The runtests.bat
file now calls this instead of unzip. I also hacked the test.xml script to
no longer make an outside call to unzip (ant has a built in unzip task).
Was there a reason why the script was calling the unzip binary, and not
just using the task?
Note that I didn't modify the runtests shell script (because I don't run
*nix). Anybody who runs *nix want to do their part?
