I noticed that there were no tests for the "Lexical Conventions" section of S02, so I tried my hand at writing some. Unfortunately, many of them are failing, and I'm new enough to writing Perl 6 tests that I'm not sure if this is the compiler failing to match the spec or me failing to write tests ;-)
Can someone tell me which is going on here (I've noted which fail and which are OK in comments at the end of each test line)? use v6; use Test; plan 7; # L<S02/Lexical Conventions/Perl can count Unicode line and paragraph separators> # See also http://unicode.org/reports/tr13/tr13-9.html eval_lives_ok "\{ 1 \} \x2029 \{ 1 \}", "Unicode 2029 can terminate lines"; # Fails # L<S02/Lexical Conventions/If a character is already used> eval_lives_ok "q\x298d test \x298e", "Unicode open-298d maps to close-298e"; # Ok eval_lives_ok "q\x301d test \x301e", "Unicode open-301d maps to close-301e"; # Ok eval_dies_ok "q\x301d test \x301f", "Unicode open-301d does not map to close-301f"; # Ok eval_lives_ok "q\x2018 test \x2019", "Unicode open-2018 maps to to close-2019"; # Fails eval_lives_ok "q\x201a test \x2019", "Unicode open-201a maps to to close-2019"; # Fails eval_lives_ok "q\x2018 \x201a test \x2019", "Alternative open-brakets treat their other alternates as non-special"; # Fails done_testing; # vim: ft=perl6 -- Aaron Sherman Email or GTalk: a...@ajs.com http://www.ajs.com/~ajs
