Subject: RSpec error
Message-ID: <sx4r56p6jbe.wl%kazunori@easter.kuee.kyoto-u.ac.jp>

Hi,

I tried to use ruby-vpi-21.1.0 follows environment:

OS : Debian Linux x86-64
Linux Version : 2.6.37.2
Ruby Version : 1.8.7
ruby-vpi version : 21.1.0

When I run 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1' in example/counter/RSpec directory,
RSpec module not found.

# LoadError: no such file to load -- spec

I checked RSpec version by 'gem list'. RSpec's version was 2.6.0.
then, I tried to follows

ruby -e "require 'rubygems'; require'rspec'"

this command works. so, I modified counter_spec.rb . replace 'spec' to
'rspec'.

then, I tried 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1' one more. but follows error ocurred.

NoMethodError: undefined method `setup' for #<Class:0x7f5230a464e0>

I check RSpec 2.6.0 document. there are no 'setup' mothod.
document uses 'before(:each)' instead of 'setup'

I replaced 'setup' to 'before(:each)'. and then 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1'.
error messages were not appeared. but, there were no test result mesasge.

How do I get correct result with 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1'.

Best regards

Please try with rspec version 1.1.4 (released May 26, 2008).

Good question.  It should work regardless of the unit testing
framework being used.  I'll try to dig into this issue this week.

By the way, I noticed that your e-mail address comes from Kyoto
University! the birthplace of the original ruby-vpi! :)  Welcome!

Are you interested in maintaining or developing Ruby-VPI?  I have
done more experiments, such as using ucontext instead of pthread[1],
and have more ideas, such as replacing `rake vsim` with a
ruby-vpi.so that can be loaded into any simulator and invoked
on-demand from a C program, and other ideas written in my notebook.

Hi Suraj.

Thank you for you response.

I tried rspec version 1.1.4 . It seemed that test result was correct.
then, I tried with no PROTOTYPE, 'rake vsim'. but, segmentation error
occured. follows are message.

** Fatal: (SIGSEGV) Bad pointer access. Closing vsimk.
** Fatal: vsimk is exiting with code 211.
(Exit codes are defined in the ModelSim messages appendix
of the ModelSim User's Manual.)

when I tried gplcver, no errors appeared. so I think vsim.so has problem.
if I have a time, I'll tackle this issue.

That's interesting. I'm sorry but I just returned to school. because of
illness.
but, I'm really interested in Ruby-VPI. when my condition gets better, I want
to join development.
