Unfortunately, the 'PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1' idea didn't work. In fact nothing I have tried on cygwin has worked. For example, if I use meson to run just few tests, like so on Linux: $ meson test --no-rebuild --print-errorlogs 't000*' 1/9 t0000-basic OK 7.52s 2/9 t0001-init OK 1.88s 3/9 t0002-gitfile OK 0.37s 4/9 t0003-attributes OK 1.35s 5/9 t0004-unwritable OK 0.23s 6/9 t0005-signals OK 0.16s 7/9 t0006-date OK 0.73s 8/9 t0007-git-var OK 0.40s 9/9 t0008-ignores OK 3.09s Ok: 9 Expected Fail: 0 Fail: 0 Unexpected Pass: 0 Skipped: 0 Timeout: 0 Full log written to /home/ramsay/git/build/meson-logs/testlog.txt $ On cygwin it looks like: $ meson test --no-rebuild --print-errorlogs 't000*' 1/9 t0002-gitfile OK 12.32s [2-4/9] 🌖 t0003-attributes 12s Which actually looks nothing like what actually happens! The first line is actually the result of (*maybe*) running all 9 tests, but during that time the line started with '[1-4/9] ...' and they didn't run in sequence but jumped around ending with t0002. Then on the second line, it almost immediately hung, again with python hovering up all the cpu cycles. So I had to kill the task from a second terminal. Actually, I tell a lie, I did get a single test to work on cygwin: $ meson test --no-rebuild --print-errorlogs 't0001*' 1/1 t0001-init OK 32.95s Ok: 1 Expected Fail: 0 Fail: 0 Unexpected Pass: 0 Skipped: 0 Timeout: 0 Full log written to /home/ramsay/git/build/meson-logs/testlog.txt $ Notice that this took much longer, at 32.95s, than (what looked like) all nine tests above at 12.32s. (although via 'make test' t0000-basic.sh alone took 124.13s for v2.47.0!). Patrick, how do you run the tests on cygwin? ATB, Ramsay Jones
