RE: [cdt-dev] Issues with unit tests for CDT 1.2.1 RC1

["Tumashov, Sergey" <sergey.tumashov@xxxxxxxxx>]

	Hi, Alain!

I've made some research on the problem with org.eclipse.cdt.debug.core.tests.LocationTests.testIsEqual(). The test fails at line 172 where it is checked whether the length of the breakpoints array is 1: 
	
	...
	assertTrue(breakpoints.length==1);
	...

But before that first all of existing breakpoints are removed and then another one is created, so the assertion should pass successfully (and it does when the test is run step by step in debug mode). So I think that the problem is in poor synchronisation of threads - under normal conditions (not step-by-step running) the code where the deletion is actually performed runs later than the assertion.

Regards,

	Sergey

Yes, the problem was fix in the branch.  I would recommand to use
the latest branch of CDT_1.2, it contains many fixes.
