README
README.g++
README.gcc

This is a collection of tests for the C and C++ frontends of EGCS. For
further information please check README.gcc and README.g++, though the
latter may not be up-to-date any more.

The driver that runs this testsuite is called DejaGnu and you will
need a current DejaGnu snapshot, which is available from
ftp://egcs.cygnus.com/pub/egcs/infrastructure, for example.

Most of these tests were originally developed and/or collected by
Cygnus Solutions, but these days many are being added by the EGCS
developers.

These tests are included "as is". If any of them fails, do not report
a bug.  Bug reports for DejaGnu can go to bug-dejagnu@prep.ai.mit.edu.
Discussion and comments about this testsuite should be sent to
egcs@egcs.cygnus.com; additions and changes to should go to sent to
egcs-patches@egcs.cygnus.com.

The entire testsuite is invoked by `make check` at the top level of
the EGCS tree. `make check-g++` runs the C++ testsuite only.


STRUCTURE OF THE TESTSUITE

Almost all C++ tests reside in subdirectories of g++.old-deja, based on
the following structure:

  g++.benjamin	Tests by Benjamin Koz
  g++.bob
  g++.brendan	Tests by Brendan Kehoe
  g++.bugs
  g++.eh  	Tests for exception handling
  g++.ext  	Tests for g++ extensions
  g++.gb  	Tests by Gerald Baumgartner
  g++.jason	Tests by Jason Merill
  g++.jeff	Tests by Jeffrey A Law
  g++.martin	Tests by Martin v. Löwis
  g++.mike	Tests by Mike Stump
  g++.niklas	Tests by Niklas Hallqvist
  g++.ns  	Tests for namespaces
  g++.other
  g++.pt  	Tests for templates
  g++.rfg
  g++.robertl	Tests from egcs-bugs@egcs.cygnus.com, gathered by Robert Lipe
	
g++.old-deja uses a fixed driver for all g++ tests based on the old
DejaGnu drivers. But just because its old, doesn't mean its redundant!
Tests that want to use the normal dg.exp driver can be put in g++.dg instead.
This may be required for platform-specific tests, or tests with other
special requirements.
