bizarre test results: foreach, gcc-4_0-darwin
I need help understanding some of the recent regression results. At http://tinyurl.com/72q3k you can see the most recent Foreach test results. The first and the third columns both purport to be gcc-4_0-darwin, but the results are different! How can that be? Both tests were run today, and I haven't touched the code since yesterday. -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com

I notice that one toolset is run incrementally and the other is not. Could that be causing the differences in the results? How? -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com

According to Beman, he was running XCode 2.0 while "dmcgrath" is running Xcode 2.1 (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.testing/1989).

Theoretically.
How?
Like the tests didn't get recompiled/re-run after you've fixed the problem. -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering

Ah, that would explain it. And since Beman says he's upgrading to XCode 2.1, hopefully the problem will go away. Thanks. -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
