Hi Benoit, > I try to update the port of NETCDF to OpenBSD but I have a problem with > a regression test that failed with utf8. > > I have add the complete output of log. > > Any idea ? We don't currently have an OpenBSD platform on which to run tests, so I'll need a little more information to diagnose the problem. Could you please send the CDL file that differs in the failed test, "utf8.cdl" from the ncdump directory. The error message ... > *** creating UTF-8 test file tst_utf8.nc...ok. > *** Tests successful! > PASS: tst_utf8 > > *** Testing ncgen and ncdump for UTF8 support... > *** creating classic offset file with utf8 characters... > *** dump and compare utf8 output... > Binary files utf8.cdl and ./ref_tst_utf8.cdl differ > FAIL: run_utf8_tests.sh > ========================================= > 1 of 8 tests failed says it's a binary file, but it's really a text file containing some UTF-8 encoded Unicode characters. Nevertheless, if you could send it in a way the preserves all the bits, it would help us to see what's happening. We haven't seen this test fail on any other platform ... --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: JLS-704865 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
