Support multi-target cmake builds via `CURL_DIRSUFFIX` env. For example:
`export CURL_DIRSUFFIX=Debug/`.
Multi-target generators place their output to `src/<subdir>/`,
`lib/<subdir>/`, `tests/server/<subdir>`, `tests/libtest/<subdir>` and
`tests/unit/<subdir>/` by default. Before this patch, `runtests.pl`
couldn't run on such builds because it expected the binaries under the
their `<subdir>`-less directories. This patch allows to set such subdir
and make `runtests.pl` find the binaries. In CI we use multi-target
builds with tests for MSVC. It also helps Xcode-generator builds, though
in CI we don't have such job running tests.
There may be better solutions to configure this, but passing a custom
value to `runtests.pl` including its subprocesses is somewhat tricky.
The reason the configuration value expects the slash at the end is
because MSYS is automagically expanding the env to a (wrong) absolute
path if the slash is in the front.
Also:
- drop the `-DCMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_*=` workaround from CI.
- replace `resolve` references in tests with a new `%RESOLVE` variable.
It didn't use a filename extension before. After this patch it uses
`exe_ext('TOOL')`. I'm not sure if this is the correct choice vs.
`exe_ext('SRV')`.
- fix `-c` option format in manual.
- fix some whitespace.
Note, in CI we still tweak `CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_*` in jobs
which share steps between `./configure` and cmake. It's easier that way.
Ref: #15000
Cherry-picked from #16394Closes#16452
Using this option (only available in debug builds) makes curl always
call curl_easy_duphandle() on the handle before using it.
To help us catch curl_easy_duphandle() mistakes better.
Add a CI job using this.
Bonus: the previous runtests option -e is now also supported as
--test-event
Closes#15504
The documented and mandated step has been to not use buildconf but to
invoke 'autoreconf -fi' for four years already.
This change only drops buildconf from the release tarball, it remains
present in git for now.
Follow-up to 85868537d6Closes#14412
As runtests.md and testcurl.md. Very few people actually need these as
manpages anyway.
With this, we have no more nroff formatted documents in git.
Closes#14324
