Subject: [ng] tests: enhance spy tests on pattern rulesn
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=84e3bac6381986e6f2b360213e911813ade3d3e5;p=thirdparty%2Fautomake.git

[ng] tests: enhance spy tests on pattern rulesn

* t/spy-pattern-rules.sh : Fix heading comments to be more faithful
about what the test really checks.  Add more tests checking that, in
case of overlapping pattern rules, the one "more specific", i.e.,
with the shortest target stem, wins.

+# Two checks are done here:
+# - if there are two pattern rules from which the same file (or set of
+#   files) can be built, and both are applicable, and both results in
+#   the same target stem, then the first one wins.
+# - if there are two pattern rules from which the same file (or set of
+#   files) can be built, and both are applicable, but the resulting
+#   target stems are different, then the "most specific" one (i.e.,
+#   that which result in the *shortest* stem) is used.
+# We take advantage of such features at least in our 'parallel-tests'
+# support.
