Hello, all
One of the biggest stumbling blocks to getting the MSVC binary to work
with sanity.sh is the path convention (i.e. / vs. \).
I am considering adding a function, called posix_to_hostpath, which will
convert the posix-style path into a path understood by the underlying
operating system. For *NIX systems, this will leave the path untouched,
but on Windows systems it will use the built-in `cygpath` command to
convert POSIX-style paths (/a/b/c) to Windows-style paths
(X:\dir\dir\dir). I just want to run this implementation past the
GNUxperts to see if this looks reasonable:
# Convert a unix path into a Windows path
# This is for testing under cygwin.
posix_to_hostpath() {
if $msvc_binary; then
cygpath -w $1 | sed 's:/:\\\\:g'
else
echo $1
fi
}
# Convert a Windows path into a regular expression
# which will ignore differences between / and \ path
# separators
posix_to_hostpath_regex() {
echo `posix_to_hostpath $1` | sed 's/\\/;/g' | sed 's:/:;:g' | \
sed 's:;:\[\\\\/\]:g'
}
# Echo a new CVSROOT based on $1, $remote, and $remotehost
newroot() {
if $remote; then
if test -n "$remotehost"; then
echo :ext$rootoptions:$remotehost$1
else
echo :fork$rootoptions:$1
fi
else
posix_to_hostpath $1
fi
}
$msvc_binary will only be set to true if the user passes a new
command-line argument, and if `uname | grep CYGWIN` returns true.
Most of the usage of this will be converting
'${CVSROOT_DIRNAME}/somepath' to '`posix_to_hostpath_regex
${CVSROOT_DIRNAME}/somepath'. As an example, ere is the modified
basica-0b test:
mkdir 1; cd 1
dotest basica-0a "$testcvs -q co -l ."
mkdir first-dir
dotest basica-0b "$testcvs add first-dir" \
"Directory `posix_to_hostpath_regex ${CVSROOT_DIRNAME}`/first-dir added
to the repository"
cd ..
rm -r 1
Any thoughts or comments on this proposed change?
