Re: testcase for "absolute source" patch


Hi Baurjan,

mec> . since the script does not work with build != host, you can simplify

mec>   build machine anyways.  Like: "file mkdir ...".  Your choice.
mec>   If you like "remote_exec host", you can keep it.

If you like it that way, okay.

bi> How does one do that? I've tried the following:

remote_exec doesn't throw an error; it returns a list:

  # A two-element list is returned. The first value is the exit status of the
  # program (-1 if the exec failed). The second is any output produced by
  # the program (which may or may not be empty if output from the program was
  # redirected).

Go into the dejagnu installation directory and look for
share/dejagnu/remote.exp.

More feedback later (tonight or tomorrow) -- this is all I have time
for today.

Michael
