I thought I'd build it overnight. Here is what I got in case anyone wants to compare:- Failed 8/922 test scripts, 99.13% okay. 49/87677 subtests failed, 99.94% okay.

It doesn't look that different to IlyaZ's results posted on c.o.o.p.porting a few days ago. Can anyone suggest how I can tell whether the os2_ea.t fails because it runs on JFS? -- John _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at os2ports.com http://os2ports.com/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs **= Email 2 ==========================** Date: Wed, 15 Dec 2004 11:15:24 +0000 From: John Poltorak Subject: EMXBIND problem When building GETTEXT there is a build failure due to EMXBIND from EMX/GCC 2.8.1.

Actually it fails because the test uses '+', which is an illegal char for EAs. The Extended Attribute Naming Conventions section of the Control Programming Guide and Reference lists '+' among chars "reserved for system use". Change the +'s to any other legal char and it works fine on JFS. Presumably it passes on HPFS because '+' became illegal with the introduction of JFS. h~ _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at os2ports.com http://os2ports.com/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs
