OK, now I'm seeing the following test failures:
***** test # replace base m-file
echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a)', "dispatch_x.m");
dispatch('dispatch_x','length','string')
assert(dispatch_x(3),3)
assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
sleep (2);
echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a),++a;', "dispatch_x.m");
rehash();
assert(dispatch_x(3),4)
assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
!!!!! test failed
`dispatch_x' undefined near line 5 column 9
***** assert(log2(complex(0,Inf)), Inf + log2(i));
!!!!! test failed
assert (log2 (complex (0, Inf)),Inf + log2 (i)) expected
Inf + 2.266i
but got
Inf - NaNi
NaNs don't match
The second one is not new, and I'm not concerned about it because I
think it is a C math library issue.
I'm not sure what is causing the first one to fail. The function
echo_to_file is defined with the tests in dispatch.cc and is
function echo_to_file (str, name)
fid = fopen (name, 'w');
if (fid != -1)
fprintf (fid, str);
fprintf (fid, '\n');
fclose (fid);
endif
endfunction
If I define this function and then run the tests
echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a)', "dispatch_x.m");
dispatch('dispatch_x','length','string')
assert(dispatch_x(3),3)
assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
sleep (2);
echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a),++a;', "dispatch_x.m");
rehash();
assert(dispatch_x(3),4)
assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a)', "dispatch_x.m");
dispatch('dispatch_x','length','string')
assert(dispatch_x(3),3)
assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a),++a;', "dispatch_x.m");
rehash();
assert(dispatch_x(3),4)
assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
by hand (cut and paste to the Octave prompt) it appears to succeed
consistently. Without the call to sleep, I consistently see this
failure:
octave> echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a)', "dispatch_x.m");
octave> dispatch('dispatch_x','length','string')
octave> assert(dispatch_x(3),3)
octave> assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
octave> echo_to_file ('function a=dispatch_x(a),++a;', "dispatch_x.m");
octave> rehash();
octave> assert(dispatch_x(3),4)
error: assert (dispatch_x (3),4) expected
4
but got
3
values do not match
error: called from:
error: /home/jwe/src/octave/scripts/testfun/assert.m at line 209, column 5
octave> assert(dispatch_x("a"),1)
This failure is different from the one I see when running the tests
with Make, but there does seem to be a timing issue. Perhaps that is
also causing dispatch_x to not be defined above?
In addition to this mode of failure, sometimes the dispatch.cc tests
appear to hang indefinitely on my system, and I have no idea what is
causing that.
If there is a race condition here, I don't understand why.
