DEJAGNU(1) User's Reference Manual DEJAGNU(1) NAME dejagnu -- DejaGnu auxiliary command launcher SYNOPSIS dejagnu <command> [--help | options...] dejagnu --help dejagnu --version DESCRIPTION The dejagnu command finds a script that implements the requested command, selects from multiple implementations if available according to a fixed internal list, and executes the command. OPTIONS --help Print a help message instead of running a command. If no com- mand is given, prints brief usage for dejagnu itself. -V, --version Print a version banner for the launcher itself including the version of DejaGnu. Any command given is ignored. -v, --verbose Emit additional output describing the operation of the dejagnu launcher itself. This option is also passed on to the invoked command. All arguments after the command name are passed to the invoked command. ENVIRONMENT DEJAGNULIBS If set, the location of DejaGnu's library in the filesystem. The search described in FILES does not happen if DEJAGNULIBS is set. AWK Full file name for an Awk interpreter that may or may not actually be GNU Awk. If not set, PATH will be searched for an awk program. If the Awk interpreter is actually GNU Awk, the --posix option will be given if an Awk implementation is used. GAWK Full file name for GNU Awk. If not set, PATH will be searched for a gawk program. BASH Full file name for GNU Bash. If not set, PATH will be searched for a bash program. Note that Bash itself sets this variable, even when run as sh, even when running a script. EXPECT Full file name for Expect, which is a Tcl interpreter with the Expect extension already loaded. If not set, PATH will be searched for an expect program. Note that the DejaGnu core is written in Expect, so this interpreter should always be available. TCLSH Full file name for a Tcl interpreter. If not set, PATH will be searched for a tclsh program. Note that GNU Awk is considered a superset of Awk and that Expect is con- sidered a superset of Tcl, allowing the former to be used to run scripts written for the latter. This means that, while Awk programs will gener- ally be run with GNU extensions disabled using the --posix option to GNU Awk, Tcl programs may be run with either tclsh or expect and should be written accordingly. FILES $DEJAGNULIBS/commands If DEJAGNULIBS is set, all command scripts are expected to be in this directory. Otherwise, the first directory that actually exists in the following list is used, where @bindir@ represents the directory containing dejagnu itself. @bindir@/../share/dejagnu/commands @bindir@/../../share/dejagnu/commands /usr/share/dejagnu/commands /usr/local/share/dejagnu/commands ATTRIBUTES See attributes(7) for descriptions of the following attributes: +---------------+------------------------+ |ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +---------------+------------------------+ |Availability | developer/test/dejagnu | +---------------+------------------------+ |Stability | Uncommitted | +---------------+------------------------+ SEE ALSO The full documentation for DejaGnu is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If the info program is properly installed at your site, the command info dejagnu should give you access to the complete manual. AUTHORS Jacob Bachmeyer BUGS The command name must precede all other arguments due to limitations of the shell.
