Thanks a lot for your response! I'll make sure the info about the GNet status makes it to my project manager. I hope there's a good reason why they decided to integrate this library into JDS. Perhaps there are some apps on the integration list which depending on it.

I installed the dependencies on my laptop and I'm now able to run the check based tests. I have to forget about the Valgrind ones though. They do not support Solaris and porting would be a tremendous task due to tight dependencies on the Linux kernel.

I noticed there were 11 test suites, GNetABI, GNetBase64, GConn, GConnHttp, GNetHashes, GInetAddr, GNetIPv6, GNetMisc, GNetPacking, GNetUnpacking and GURI. While some of the test names are self-explaining (like GNetHashes is likely to test SHA and MD5), others are a bit mystery for me. As there is no test documentation, I was wondering whether you could provide me very short desc on the individual check tests, like which features each of them covers? Do the check tests cover all or at least most of the major features?

Testing the library using an app built on top of GNet is of course a good idea. The only question is efficiency. Such a task would require me to port the app onto Solaris (unless it has been already done, like Pan on Blastwave) which may or may not be easy. Most apps listed on your web site seem to be almost dead, with the last source code changes dated a few years back. The only exceptions are Pan, Workrave and Mail Notification icon which seem to provide a very small test coverage. For these reasons I was wondering whether I should spend my limited resources on this and I was interested in your opinion.

Thanks,
Robert

Hi,

  
My name is Robert Pes and I work for Sun Microsystems. I'm just about
to start to work with my colleague David Fan on integration of your
GNet library into Java Desktop System (JDS). I'll be responsible in
particular for testing of the library after its integration into the
JDS consolidation. The goal is to make sure that the all the library
features work as expected.
    

That's great! However, you do realise that GNet is basically in
maintenance-only mode for all practical purposes, right? It will
hopefully be replaced/superseded by a spiffy new network API in GLib
(gnio etc.) in the not too distant future.


  
I noticed there were some test suites attached to your source tarball.
I tried to run them using "make check" but there were no visible
results. Is there any trick in running them?
    

You probably need the 'check' library installed (check.sf.net IIRC),
optionally also valgrind + valgrind-headers if you want valgrind support
(and your platform supports it). Same as you need to run 'make check'
for GStreamer basically.


  
I was also wondering whether there is any test documentation
describing the test scope, feature coverage and expected results. I
didn't find anything either in available docs or the tests/ folder and
the test source code is not that easy to read (I'm rather Java
programmer than C one).
    

'make help' in $srcdir/tests/check will give you an overview of the
options. 'make check' or 'make check-valgrind' in the top-level dir
should be enough for most purposes.

There is no further documentation than that I'm afraid.

The output should look something like:

Running suite(s): GTcpSocket
...........125 attempts
100%: Checks: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 0
PASS: gnet/gnettcpsocket
Running suite(s): GNetABI
...


  
I was also thinking of running one of the applications using GNet,
like e.g. Mail Notify, to verify functionality of your library. Do you
think it's a good idea?
    

How could that possibly not be a good idea? :)


  
Which application would in your opinion provide the best coverage of
the supported features?
    

I don't think there's one application, as applications tend to use only
a very limited subset of features.

Cheers
 -Tim

You'll just have to read the source code, sorry. > Do the check tests cover all or at least most of the major features? I'd expect the tests to cover most, if not all, of the non-network API (hashes, URI parsing, packing etc.), whereas in the case of API which establishes network connections the coverage is probably a bit thinner, just covering the main code paths / functions. You'll find that tests/check/Makefile.am contains some make rules for coverage stuff (copied over from GStreamer basically), but they probably don't work because the stuff in configure.ac that goes with it is missing. If you're familiar with autotools, you could have a look at GStreamer's configure.ac and tests/check/Makefile.am and make the coverage stuff work. That will give you an exact picture of the API that's covered (I think). If that's worth your time, I don't know of course. I don't really see much point in obsessing about test coverage anyway, unless you are planning to write more tests (which would be very welcome of course). > Testing the library using an app built on top of GNet is of course a > good idea.

Also, one who entices into danger and betrays others. The name is an allusion to Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of slaughter. (From Merriam Webster’s Dictionary) Barack Hussein Obama is a Judas Goat. Extremist Jews guided Barack Hussein Obama’s career from day one, even all the way back to Harvard Law School. Radical Zionist hitman, David Axelrod previously orchestrated the Jewish-financed and organized defeat of perceived anti-Zionist Sen. Charles Percy. He is the man who ran Obama’s campaign for President and who is his chief handler. Obama’s campaign was overwhelmingly financed by the most powerful Zionist bankers in the world. His campaign’s largest contribution source was the Zionist international banking firm of Goldman Sachs. (FEC campaign records). In both Obama’s Senate and Presidential campaign he prostrated himself before AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) promising even more money and blood for Israel’s terrorism than even the supine John McCain, and even more money and blood than the previous Shabbez Goy in the White House, George Bush. Before the Israeli terrorism and mass murder in Gaza, he went to Israel and said that he supported Israel’s p lanned murderous terrorism against the men, women and children of Gaza. His first act as President-elect was to appoint a rabid Zionist, Israeli dual citizen who served in the Israeli Army as his Chief of Staff, Rahm Emmanuel. As thousands of women and children in Gaza were killed or maimed, Obama remained silent. Within a few days as President Obama supported indiscriminate American missile strikes in villages of our ally Pakistan, a clear continuation of Bush’s policies. He completely supports the theft of trillions of American taxpayer dollars to the Zionist international bankers. Eighty percent of American Jews voted for Obama, and all the main leaders of the Jewish Supremacist state of Israel have proclaimed Obama as the perfect man for U.S. President. What better for the Zionists to have their own servant perceived as a clean break from the Jewish extremist-controlled Bush administration? What better than for the Zionists than to have their Shabbez Goy be treated by the world’s press and even by much of the anti-Zionist community as a man of “real change?” What better for the Zionists than for the world to think that Obama will be a change from the Zionist-controlled policies when he willing to do anything that Israel demands? What better for the Zionist murderers to have their craven puppet be looked at by the whole world as a man of honor and integrity and fairness. In the slaughterhouse, the Judas Goat is often painted with bright colors, adorned with strong, sweet scents to lure the sheep to their pens and to their death. Obama, the Judas Goat of our time, is looked upon by millions of Zionist-propagandized sheep as the man who will lead them to salvation. Instead, he leads America, Palestine and the world to the bloody altar of Jewish Supremacism. Any supposed anti-Zionist who praises Barack Obama is actually aiding this Judas Goat to lead us all to slaughter. Every person who truly opposes Jewish extremism must speak out and expose the Judas Goat named Barack Obama! – Dr. David Duke Former Member of the House of Representatives State of Louisiana United States of America It is up to you the people of the United States who can still think freely, and up to all of the people of the world who are able to see through the deceptions of the Zionist-influenced Global media -- to get this simple, powerful message to everyone on earth. Email this message to your friends, post it on forums and websites and put links to it on every website, facebook or other media in the world. Go and seek out media and Internet sites not controlled by Zionist power. Make youtube videos of this message, (use the short audio and find good illustrative pictures) and post it untill your fingers are worn and tired, print it and mail it to newspapers or any media outlet that has still not fallen under the propaganda of the Zionists. Let the world know the truth. Person by person, in the USA, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Italy, japan, Russia, China, Africa, Palestine, South America and across the whole world this Judas Goat must be exposed for what he is, so that when begin s to do his evil for Israel, the whole world will know exactly what is going on and resist!

"Israel’s President Shimon Peres ecstatic over the election of Obama" Ronen Medzini Israel News Jan. 21 “Today is a great day not only for the United States of America, but for the entire world,” President Shimon Peres wrote in a letter addressed to Barack Obama on the day of his inauguration as president of the United States. “Obama was elected by the United States, but as a matter of fact, he was chosen by the whole of humankind,” Why is Peres so ecstatic? Why shouldn’t he be, he knows that Obama is completely in the grip of the extremist Jewish Zionists in America, and he knows that the greater Obama’s popularity and idol worship, the more Obama can do for the International Zionist Cause. Any thinking and caring human being who realizes that the Zionist-controlled American foreign policy has been a disaster for the robbed and murdered people of Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq and a catastrophe for the 50,000 American wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as an economic catastrophe for the hardworking Americans who pay trillions to finance these wars for Israel -- must wake up the fact that supporting Obama and increasing his popularity will only aid Zionist terrorism, war, and their murder and oppression of the Palestinians. It will also hasten the economic suffering of billions of people around the world as his popularity enables him to more easily aid the Zionist International Bankers steal the wealth of the United States, Europe and the world. Obama is totally in the bloodstained and green ink- stained hands of the Zionists. The hard truth is that the more good will and support Obama has also gives more power to support the Zionist agenda! Mark my words. The Obama Presidency will be disaster for America and for the world. Obama was put into office by the Zionists. His top two cohorts for years have been the radical Jews David Axelrod and Rahm Emmanuel. Both have long records of radical Zionism and have been attack dogs against anyone perceived as having the slightest opposition to Israel. One such victim was Sen. Charles Percy, who both men worked to defeat and destroy because he dared to only be 99 percent rather than 100 percent pro-Israel. Rahm Emmanuel, a dual citizen of Israel who went to fight for Israel, he has a long pedigree of Jewish extremism. His father served in the Irgun Terrorist Gang and he himself is named after an Irgun terrorist. Zionist leaders in Chicago actually call Obama “the first Jewish President” and boast that Jews were key players in Obama’s every step up the ladder to President. from the very earliest days, extremist Jews were the largest contributors to his campaign. In the beginning of his Presidential bid, three Hollywood Jews that constantly make movies about Jewish suffering, but never about the Zionist terrorism and theft against the Palestinian people, Steven Spielberg, David Geffen, and Jeffrey Katzenberg raised 1.2 million for Obama in a single Hollywood party. By the time Obama’s campaign was in full swing, he had huge support from the criminal Zionist International Banking firms such as Goldman Sachs and Lehman brothers. Goldman Sachs was Obama’s biggest single contributor, and his vast war chest came not from American manufacturing firms like GM or even American oil companies, (not one was in his top twenty) it was overwhelmingly dominated by Zionist international bankers, the same ones whose thievery and fraud are giving the world this economic depression. For those looking for meaningful social and political change, do you really think it will come from this man who has already been bought heart, head and soul by the most powerful czars of the international financial establishment and the biggest globalists in the world? I know that many are desperate for change, so desperate that you want to believe anything. But in the face of these facts can’t you see that Obama will be even more dangerous to freedom and justice than even George Bush and his band of Neocons were. What better way to wipe out George Bush’s hated legacy and make the world believe that America has really changed than with the election of Obama. But, all the real Zionist power, Zionist media power, and Zionist financial power in America is still in place, even stronger than ever. Many Americans and others around the world who want to do good are now telling us how wonderful Obama will be as president. What a great change it will be from the old policies. This is because of the Zionist-Controlled media hype, promoting Obama. The fact is that these poor sods are ignorantly helping the radical Zionist agenda in Israel and around the world. Every day that you don’t help expose Obama for the Zionist servant that he actually is, his popularity will be a greater danger to peace and freedom. If the Zionist terrorist Shimon Perez is happy about the coronation of Obama, then why in the hell should you be? –David Duke Source : http://www.davidduke.com/general/7303_7303.html ------------------------------------- You or someone using your email adress is currently subscribed to the Lawrence Auster Newletter.
