From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; T312461) Description of problem: When running many eCos tests, the Output pane of the Run Tests dialog box will stop filling with text after a while. Tests continue to run and are reported in the Summary pane. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Build the eCos tests for target psim, tempate all. 2. Run all tests via the Run Tests dialog. 3. Actual Results: The output of the tests seen in the output pane stops after a while (in my case following kernel test kclock0). Expected Results: The output of _all_ tests should appear in the output pane. Additional info: Observed with the Visual C++ build of eCos Confuguration Tool 1.12.net (eCos 2.0b1) on Windows 98SE. When I observed this problem, the Output pane contained 60,969 bytes (measured by cutting and pasting text into a file).
Out of interest, I haven't seen this in my viper testing on Linux. My windows testing isn't complete yet though so it may still exist there.
The configtool was using the Windows edit control which is limited to about 64k characters. The tool now uses the Windows _rich_ edit control which does not have this limitation.
