29 | <p> | |
30 | I have been attempting to understand the differences between compilers | |
31 | and environments when running tests on Boost Phoenix. | |
32 | </p> | |
33 | <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"> | |
34 | <li class="listitem"> | |
35 | Some environments are limited in the memory available for testing and | |
36 | I have broken some large tests into smaller pieces. | |
37 | </li> | |
38 | <li class="listitem"> | |
39 | Some of the problems experienced in testing are specific to particular | |
40 | compilers being used. | |
41 | </li> | |
42 | <li class="listitem"> | |
43 | Some problems have occurred with several more recent compilers. | |
44 | </li> | |
45 | <li class="listitem"> | |
46 | One problem is that I do not have access to all of the compilers used | |
47 | in the tests or by users. | |
48 | <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="circle"> | |
49 | <li class="listitem"> | |
50 | My system is <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/" target="_top">Ubuntu </a> | |
51 | 12.04 | |
52 | </li> | |
53 | <li class="listitem"> | |
54 | I have expanded the compilers I have available to include the | |
55 | following | |
56 | </li> | |
57 | <li class="listitem"> | |
58 | <a href="https://gcc.gnu.org" target="_top">gcc </a> 4.6, 4.8.2, 4.9.0 | |
59 | & 4.9.2 (I will add 5.0 when released) | |
60 | </li> | |
61 | <li class="listitem"> | |
62 | <a href="http://clang.llvm.org" target="_top">Clang </a> 3.4, 3.5 & | |
63 | 3.6 (pre-release in the last case) | |
64 | </li> | |
65 | </ul></div> | |
66 | </li> | |
67 | <li class="listitem"> | |
68 | The most difficult problems to diagnose have been some which occur | |
69 | when the compilation uses optimization. | |
70 | <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="circle"> | |
71 | <li class="listitem"> | |
72 | Some of the boost tests use optimization but most do not. | |
73 | </li> | |
74 | <li class="listitem"> | |
75 | It is not usually documented which tests are optimized. | |
76 | </li> | |
77 | <li class="listitem"> | |
78 | This means that a lot of tests run there which fail when optimized. | |
79 | </li> | |
80 | <li class="listitem"> | |
81 | This has made the identification of the cause of the problems | |
82 | more difficult. | |
