.TH XS::APItest 3 "2002-06-01" "perl v5.8.0" "Perl Programmers Reference Guide"
XS::APItest \- Test the perl C API
This module tests the perl C \s-1API\s0. Currently tests that \f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR
This module can be used to check that the perl C \s-1API\s0 is behaving
correctly. This module provides test functions and an associated
test script that verifies the output.
This module is not meant to be installed.
Exports all the test functions:
.IP "\fBprint_double\fR" 4
Test that a double-precision floating point number is formatted
correctly by \f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR.
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
.IP "\fBprint_long_double\fR" 4
.IX Item "print_long_double"
Test that a \f(CW\*(C`long double\*(C'\fR is formatted correctly by
\&\f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR. Takes no arguments \- the test value is hard-wired
into the function (as \*(L"7\*(R").
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
.IP "\fBhave_long_double\fR" 4
.IX Item "have_long_double"
Determine whether a \f(CW\*(C`long double\*(C'\fR is supported by Perl. This should
be used to determine whether to test \f(CW\*(C`print_long_double\*(C'\fR.
\& print_long_double() if have_long_double;
Test that an \f(CW\*(C`NV\*(C'\fR is formatted correctly by
\&\f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR.
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
Test that an \f(CW\*(C`IV\*(C'\fR is formatted correctly by
\&\f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR.
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
Test that an \f(CW\*(C`UV\*(C'\fR is formatted correctly by
\&\f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR.
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
Test that an \f(CW\*(C`int\*(C'\fR is formatted correctly by
\&\f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR.
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
Test that an \f(CW\*(C`long\*(C'\fR is formatted correctly by
\&\f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR.
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
.IP "\fBprint_float\fR" 4
Test that a single-precision floating point number is formatted
correctly by \f(CW\*(C`printf\*(C'\fR.
Output is sent to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
