qmtest_libstdcpp Source Build Instructions

This document has instructions on how to build the source for qmtest_libstdcpp. (written based on a build on a Mandriva system, some variations expected on different distros)

Assumptions

bzr is installed, 0.13 or better

build tools are installed (make, gcc)

LSB-build tools are installed (lsb-build-base lsb-build-cc, lsb-build-c++)

lsb dynamic linker is in place (/%_lib/ld-lsb-%_arch.so.3)

rpm-build is installed

qm,lsb-python is installed

my 'pwd' is ~/LSB-work/doc-test

all build work is done as a "normal" user, not root

Distribution pre-requisites for running LSB tests are installed (package lsb-test on Mandriva)

Building Steps

Checkout a branch from Bazaar-NG

An initial branch will take some minutes to complete:

bzr branch http://bzr.freestandards.org/lsb/3.1/libstdcpp-test libstdcpp-test

or if you have an existing branch:

cd libstdcpp-test
bzr pull

Build the tarball

The Makefile accepts the environment variable BZRTREES to pull from your local branch to build the tarball, rather than the remote branch.

cd libstdcpp-test/package
BZRTREES=/home/stew/LSB-work/doc-test make tarball

You should find something like this at the end of the build:

qmtest_libstdcpp-3.4.3.tar.gz

Build the rpm packages

make rpm_package

You should find something like this at the end of the build:

qmtest_libstdcpp-3.4.3-7.lsb3.src.rpm
qmtest_libstdcpp-3.4.3-7.lsb3.x86_64.rpm

The tarball and package steps could of course be combined with a plain "make". I only broke them up for ease of troubleshooting.

BZTREES=/home/stew/LSB-work/doc-test make

Install and test the binary package

This is covered in more detail in Executing the lsb-c++ Test Suite, but you can quickly test your package with (urpmi is Mandriva specific, use whatever package manager your distro provides). The test run will take some minutes to complete.

sudo urpmi qmtest_libstdcpp-3.4.3-7.lsb3.x86_64.rpm
/opt/lsb/test/share/qmtest_libstdcpp_3.4.3/run_tests

Typical results:

tjreport /home/stew/qmtest_libstdcpp_3.4.3/v3db/journal.200612281937
/24_iterators/istreambuf_iterator/2.cc 1 FAIL
