[LTP] [PATCH v2 7/7] docparse: Split into metadata and docparse

[Petr Vorel]

Hi Cyril,

> That way the metadata are build and installed unconditionally as they
> are going to be integral part of the test execution framework.

> The metadata file is also renamed to ltp.json and installed into
> $DESTDIR/metadata/ltp.json.

> The docparse build is triggered from the metadata Makefile since it has
> to be done once the ltp.json is fully generated.
While I agree with this, there is a dependency loop. Or am I missing something?

ltp.git/metadata $ make
HOSTCC metadata/metaparse
ltp.git/metadata/parse.sh > ltp.json
ltp.git/metadata/parse.sh: line 33: ltp.git/metadata/../docparse/docparse: No such file or directory
# => OK let's go to docparse and make first

ltp.git/metadata $ cd ../docparse/
ltp.git/docparse $ make
docparse/testinfo.pl ../metadata/ltp.json
'"' expected, at character offset 294 (before "(end of string)") at docparse/testinfo.pl line 461.
# => OK, let's cleanup docparse first

ltp.git/docparse $ cd ../metadata
ltp.git/metadata $ rm -rf *; git reset --hard
ltp.git/metadata $ cd ../docparse/
ltp.git/docparse $ make
make: *** No rule to make target '../metadata/ltp.json', needed by 'txt'.  Stop.
# => huh, dependency loop?

And indeed CI confirms that:

Kind regards,
