megatest branch: v2.01-local-mtfiles

opensrc branch: modularize-debug

goals:

enable development of eggs without altering megatest install area

decouple argument processing, debug messages, config file loading

modularity

• compiler checks missing bindings (like perl -w)
• not all modules loaded at start
• reuse

architecture notes:

installation different.

• was:
  • make install -> /bin
• now:
  • make install -> /tmpinstall/{bin,eggs,share},

how?

• link tree /tmpinstall/eggs
• during build, setenv CHICKEN_REPOSITORY /tmpinstall/eggs/…
• at runtime, (repository-path /tmpinstall/eggs/…)
  • mtconfigf.scm
  • common.scm

decoupling notes

• mtdebug

  ;; configure mtdebug  ;; TODO: move to megatest.scm with other command line arg processing
  (if (args:get-arg "-v")     (debug:set-verbose-mode))
  (if (args:get-arg "-q")     (debug:set-quiet-mode))
  (if (args:get-arg "-color")
      (case (string->symbol (args:get-arg "-color"))
        ((y Y yes YES t T)  (debug:force-color))
        ((n N no NO f F)    (debug:suppress-color))))
  debug 0,9 does not work
  

• mtconfigf

  (define *default-log-port*  (current-error-port))
  (let* ((normal-fn debug:print)
         (info-fn   debug:print-info)
         (error-fn  debug:print-error)
         (default-port *default-log-port*))
    (configf:set-debug-printers normal-fn info-fn error-fn default-port))
  (configf:add-eval-string "(import (prefix mtargs    args:))
                            (import mtdebug)
                            (import (prefix mtconfigf configf:))")
  

already: common_records.scm included by many megatest scm's

new:

• include modules.scm from common_records.scm
• include modules.scm from scm's and utils that do not include common_records.scm

modules.scm:

• use's new eggs
• sets up new eggs (to be moved to megatest.scm and other toplevels (sauth, dashboard.scm, etc..)

modules.scm

completed:

moved following from megatest source tree into opensrc/mtutils eggs:

• margs.scm -> mtargs
• debug: functions in common -> mtdebug
• configf.scm -> mtconfigf

color mode for debug:print-error, debug:print-info

in progress:

get thru ext-tests

not started & loose threads:

common.scm -> mtcommon

-show-config -debug 9

Makefile dependency weirdness

and the rest… in phase 2

csi broken for (use mtdebug)

move egg config from modules.scm to real toplevels (megatest.scm, sauthorize.scm, etc…)
