If you can get it going, I'd advise also trying boost, it uses alot of language features and will be a good test (although make sure you compare results again x86, as some tests do fail on various versions of gcc).Hi,
I am working on a fresh C++ port and I am filling in all the machine specific hooks.
How do I run the C++ testsuite on my compiler? I am familiar with the GCC torture/execute tests and have my backend passing those tests reasonably well. Now, I am looking for something similar for C++ to test my support for the language's features.
I am a bit confused by how the Deja Gnu tests are organized. I see that the testsuite contains a lot of different tests of which, some are compile only tests, some are pre-processor tests etc. Aren't the "runnable" tests the main kind that I should be interested in? Given a compiler version of 3.x.x shouldn't I be able to rely on test results run on the generic portions by the GCC maintainers themselves and worry about only the runnable tests?
Is there a specific/sufficient list of tests that I need to validate...?
