Create a utility library (LIBBU) API unit test ... for argv.c

Create a utility library (LIBBU) API unit test ... for argv.cBRL-CAD

Status: ClosedTime to complete: 48 hrs Mentors: SeanTags: unit test, API, C, C++, Tcl, Python, Ruby

There are more than 300 library functions in our core LIBBU library. As a core library used by nearly every one of BRL-CAD's tools, testing those functions for correct behavior is important.

This task involves implementing a new unit test for any of LIBBU's source files that do not already have a unit test defined. The test should run all of the public functions and be hooked into our build system. We have lots of existing unit tests to follow as an example. You can implement this task in any language you like, but you'll have to bind all of the functions you test.

Hi,

I'm essentially finished this task (except for the mentor check) even though it's not been accepted... that's alright isn't it?

Thanks,
Lachlan

Hi,

This patch contains stuff from my last task, as I explained on the IRC:

[16:19] lachlanp i'm trying to make a patch from my work, but a previous task of mine hasn't yet been commited it seems to the repo
[16:19] lachlanp for me, that means the changes to CMakeLists.txt for the old task are in the new one
[16:19] lachlanp what should I do?

Lachlan

This looks great Lachlan.

We have a backlog of patches to commit to the repository, but they are queued up and will all get processed eventually. We just don't want to hold up responding to the GCI tasks, which are getting priority attention right now.

Thank your for your efforts, this is a nice testing example.
