1 | Instructions for adding tests: |
| 2 | ||
| 3 | The files *.rc are hand-edited or copied from elsewhere. | |
| 4 | ||
| 5 | The script msupdate is used to generate the *.rsd files, which are | |
| 6 | dumps of the RES formatted output of MSVC's RC utility. | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | Within the *.rc file, the first N lines beginning with a special | |
| 9 | comment can control the test. Comments are // /* or # (// is | |
| 10 | recommended, as both rc and windres support those). Each line | |
| 11 | contains one command: | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | // parse-only | |
| 14 | // xfail *-*-* | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | parse-only must preceed any xfail commands, and indicates that a | |
| 17 | comparison with the *.rsd file will not happen. xfail indicates when | |
| 18 | a failure is expected. This should only be used for when you are | |
| 19 | adding a new test that is known to fail because of a bug in windres, | |
| 20 | and it should be removed when the bug is fixed. | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | You can use pfail or cfail instead of xfail to indicate that only the | |
| 23 | parsing or comparing should be xfailed. | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | The windres tests only run for ix86 targets, because the | |
| 26 | MSVC-generated *.rsd files are generated for that. |
