Hello,
I was looking for an interesting platform to refresh my programming skills. After looking around a while, it found GNUstep/Etoilé looking interesting.
I've been building GNUstep following the instructions in 'Downloads: Installation instruction' on the Etoilé website.
Everything went fine I sucessfully built make, base, gui and back.
However, when I ran the 'make check' for the base package, I got the following result:
7552 Passed tests
25 Failed tests
19 Dashed hopes
5 Skipped sets
1 Failed file
Given the fact that ProjectCenter seems to be working fine, do I have to worry about this, or is it normal that some tasts fail?
The failed tests are of the form:
Testing propertyAttrs.m...
Running base/Functions/propertyAttrs.m...
Passed test: Lookup succeeded for property charDefault
Passed test: Proprety name should be 'charDefault' was 'charDefault'
Failed test: Property attributes for charDefault should be 'Tc,VcharDefault' was 'TcVcharDefault'
Passed test: Lookup succeeded for property doubleDefault
Passed test: Proprety name should be 'doubleDefault' was 'doubleDefault'
Failed test: Property attributes for doubleDefault should be 'Td,VdoubleDefault' was 'TdVdoubleDefault'
Passed test: Lookup succeeded for property enumDefault
Passed test: Proprety name should be 'enumDefault' was 'enumDefault'
Failed test: Property attributes for enumDefault should be 'Ti,VenumDefault' was 'TiVenumDefault'
Passed test: Lookup succeeded for property floatDefault
To me it seems like they are coding, so I wonder if I've been using the sources of a developmant version?
