Description Petr Muller 2010-05-10 12:01:32 UTC

Description of problem:
gdb.cp/realcpp.exp was suggested to be run as part of
'Expression Parsing Improvements' feature testing for RHEL6. This testcase has
23 failures across all architectures:

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2010-05-10 13:24:18 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

Hi Keith, I believe you should be aware of it - do you agree with these FAILures?

Comment 4 Keith Seitz 2010-05-11 19:13:20 UTC

Yes, this is expected. IMO, we should retire realecpp.exp in favor of the upstream cpexprs.exp (which is probably already included).

realcpp and cpexprs are essentially identical; the failing default template tests -- 20 of the failures in realcpp -- are not included in cpexprs.exp because there is no way to fix them today. That leaves the three known failures (which I believe can be fixed) which also occur in realcpp: "print"/"list"/"break" & "continue" to base::overload(void) [which is declared const, but gdb doesn't recognize that].

Comment 5 Jan Kratochvil 2010-05-11 19:26:40 UTC

Therefore closing as known FAILs which are common in GDB.
