This is purely a bug fix release, and contain no new functionality
since 0.6.0.
This release fixes a bug in the iterator implementation of
flat_segment_tree. Prior to this release, the iterator would treat
the position immediately before the end position to be the end
position, which would result in incorrectly skipping the last data
position during iteration. This release contains a fix for that
bug.
It also contains fixes for various build errors and compiler
warnings.
Many thanks to David Tardon, Stephan Bergmann, Tomáš Chvátal,
and Markus Mohrhard for having submitted patches since the release
of 0.6.0.
The changes against 1.13.0 are rather small:
a fix for a crash happening when mixing different gcc versions
and demangling fails (fdo#52539)
using portable way to include header for free (fdo#52536)
New in 1.12.4:
* WARNING: Future backward-incompatibilities!
- Future versions of Automake will likely drop support for the
long-deprecated 'configure.in' name for the Autoconf input file.
You are advised to use the recommended name 'configure.ac' instead.
- Support for the "Cygnus-style" trees (as enabled by the 'cygnus'
option) will be removed in the next major Automake release (1.13).
- The long-obsolete (since automake 1.10) AM_PROG_MKDIR m4 macro will
be removed in Automake 1.13. The $(mkdir_p) make variable and the
@mkdir_p@ substitution will still remain available (as aliases of
$(MKDIR_P)) for the moment, for better backward compatibility.
- Autoconf 2.65 or later will be required by the next major Automake
version (1.13). Until now, Automake has required Autoconf version
2.62 or later.
- Starting from the next major Automake version (1.13), the rules
to build pdf, ps and dvi output from Texinfo input will use the
'--build-dir' option by default. Since such an option was only
introduced in Texinfo 4.9, this means that Makefiles generated by
future Automake versions will require at least that version of
Texinfo.
- Starting from the next major Automake version (1.13), the parallel
testsuite harness (previously only enabled by the 'parallel-tests'
option) will become the default one; the older serial testsuite
harness will still be available through the use of the 'serial-tests'
option.
- The following long-obsolete m4 macros will be removed in the
next major Automake version (1.13):
AM_PROG_CC_STDC: superseded by AC_PROG_CC since October 2002
fp_PROG_CC_STDC: broken alias for AM_PROG_CC_STDC
fp_WITH_DMALLOC: old alias for AM_WITH_DMALLOC
AM_CONFIG_HEADER: superseded by AC_CONFIG_HEADERS since July 2002
ud_PATH_LISPDIR: old alias for AM_PATH_LISPDIR
jm_MAINTAINER_MODE: old alias for AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
ud_GNU_GETTEXT: old alias for AM_GNU_GETTEXT
gm_PROG_LIBTOOL: old alias for AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
fp_C_PROTOTYPES: old alias for AM_C_PROTOTYPES (which was part
of the now-removed automatic de-ANSI-fication
support of Automake)
- All the "old alias" macros in 'm4/obsolete.m4' will be removed in
the next major Automake version (1.13).
- The '--acdir' option of aclocal is deprecated, and will probably
be removed in the next major Automake release (1.13). You should
use the options '--automake-acdir' and '--system-acdir' instead
(which have been introduced in Automake 1.11.2).
- The 'missing' script will not try anymore to update the timestamp
of out-of-date files that require a maintainer-specific tool to be
remade, in case the user lacks such a tool (or has a too-old version
of it). In fact, starting from Automake 1.13, all it'll do will be
giving more useful warnings than a bare "command not found" from a
make recipe would.
* Warnings and deprecations:
- Warnings in the 'obsolete' category are enabled by default both in
automake and aclocal.
* Miscellaneous changes:
- Some testsuite weaknesses and spurious failures have been fixed.
synchronization library provides read-side access which scales linearly
with the number of cores. It does so by allowing multiples copies of a
given data structure to live at the same time, and by monitoring the
data structure accesses to detect grace periods after which memory
reclamation is possible.
it's not dead upstream (which looks to be minimal) upstream also seems
to not be interested in making releases.
This package will be removed in due course unless the circumstances
change.
current wrapper transformation is incompatible since -threads was removed
in GCC 4.7.
Defaulting to -pthreads will be supported by the sunpro transformations.
Fixes package on Solaris/GCC.
Passing LIBS=-liconv will be result in unwanted libiconv linkage for libdatrie
(it is just required for trietool-0.2),
then it cause build failure of depending packages due to missing libiconv.
Passing sufficient iconv library to configure script with right way,
and it also fix build failure on other platforms for the case GNU iconv
from pkgsrc is preferred rather than builtin iconv.
* Fix two security bugs

~~~~~~
This is the last release to support Python2.4 and 2.5. It brings in a slew of
improvements to test tagging and concurrency, making running large test suites
with partitioned workers more reliable and easier to reproduce exact test
ordering in a given worker. See our sister project ``testrepository`` for a
test runner that uses these features.
Changes
-------
* ``PlaceHolder`` and ``ErrorHolder`` now support being given result details.
(Robert Collins)
* ``ErrorHolder`` is now just a function - all the logic is in ``PlaceHolder``.
(Robert Collins)
* ``TestResult`` and all other ``TestResult``-like objects in testtools
distinguish between global tags and test-local tags, as per the subunit
specification. (Jonathan Lange)
* This is the **last** release of testtools that supports Python 2.4 or 2.5.
These releases are no longer supported by the Python community and do not
receive security updates. If this affects you, you will need to either
stay on this release or perform your own backports.
(Jonathan Lange, Robert Collins)
* ``ThreadsafeForwardingResult`` now forwards global tags as test-local tags,
making reasoning about the correctness of the multiplexed stream simpler.
This preserves the semantic value (what tags apply to a given test) while
consuming less stream size (as no negative-tag statement is needed).
(Robert Collins, Gary Poster, #986434)
Improvements
------------
* API documentation corrections. (Raphaël Badin)
* ``ConcurrentTestSuite`` now takes an optional ``wrap_result`` parameter
that can be used to wrap the ``ThreadsafeForwardingResult``s created by
the suite. (Jonathan Lange)
* ``Tagger`` added. It's a new ``TestResult`` that tags all tests sent to
it with a particular set of tags. (Jonathan Lange)
* ``testresultdecorator`` brought over from subunit. (Jonathan Lange)
* All ``TestResult`` wrappers now correctly forward ``current_tags`` from
their wrapped results, meaning that ``current_tags`` can always be relied
upon to return the currently active tags on a test result.
* ``TestByTestResult``, a ``TestResult`` that calls a method once per test,
added. (Jonathan Lange)
* ``ThreadsafeForwardingResult`` correctly forwards ``tags()`` calls where
only one of ``new_tags`` or ``gone_tags`` are specified.
(Jonathan Lange, #980263)
* ``ThreadsafeForwardingResult`` no longer leaks local tags from one test
into all future tests run. (Jonathan Lange, #985613)
* ``ThreadsafeForwardingResult`` has many, many more tests. (Jonathan Lange)
The Hashery is a tight collection of Hash-like classes.
Included among its many offerings are the auto-sorting Dictionary class,
the efficient LRUHash, the flexible OpenHash and the convenient KeyHash.
Nearly every class is a subclass of the CRUDHash which defines a CRUD model
on top of Ruby''s standard Hash making it a snap to subclass and augment
to fit any specific use case.
