Bug ID: 104023
Summary: Bulk rename of C++ test files to one filename
extension ?
Product: gcc
Version: 12.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: testsuite
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: dcb314 at hotmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
I notice the following in the testsuite:
[/home/dcb/gcc/trunk.git/gcc/testsuite] $ find . -name \*.C -print | wc -l
18461
[/home/dcb/gcc/trunk.git/gcc/testsuite] $ find . -name \*.cc -print | wc -l
168
[/home/dcb/gcc/trunk.git/gcc/testsuite] $ find . -name \*.cpp -print | wc -l
23
[/home/dcb/gcc/trunk.git/gcc/testsuite] $ find . -name \*.cxx -print | wc -l
0
[/home/dcb/gcc/trunk.git/gcc/testsuite] $
Would it be a good idea to pick one filename extension for C++ testsuite files
and stick to it ?
Maybe moving to *.C would be cheap, but I notice that the main
parts of the compiler are moving to using *.cc, implying that
over 18,000 files might have to be moved to *.cc
Just an idea. Given the amount of work involved, it might not be worth it.
