Re: [c++0x] <date_time> implementation, take 4


Hi Pedro,
I thought this test failed because of new symbols added.
The test is specifically crafted to allow for symbol *additions*, the best type of compatibility we can deliver between releases while not blocking development completely. That said, a tricky situation happens when you **inadvertently** export additional symbols, that this you export those symbols at an old revver, not the most recent one. abi_check lately tests for that annoying situation too (and that's why was recently failing: for some reason, inlining of two small functions was not happening anymore and two symbols, inadvertently matching old patterns in the linker script, were inadvertently exported)
My working copy is not up to date: Last Changed Rev: 133070
Humm, I'm worried because Honza fixed that issue at Rev. 132854...

I'am afraid you are stumbling in the tricky situation above: some new symbols are inadvertently matching old patterns in the linker script... Please try to make progress, inspect the libstdc++.log file, abi_check outputs all the required diagnostic information.

Paolo.
