Description Libor Kotouc 2005-01-05 13:17:39 UTC 
Verification framework treats differences in line
ending characters.
When ide build is run on Windows, it generates
nbbuild/build/*.txt files with CRLF characters at
the end of the lines. Some files in the ide/golden
directory have only LF at the end of the lines.
The verification framework then announce an error
when compares such files.
Comment 1 Jaroslav Tulach 2005-01-05 13:27:22 UTC 
I have tested this problem by cvs co ide/golden on windows and running
build and it works fine. The reason is imho that cvs during checkout
and update uses correct line endings for the platform it runs on. The
verification framework does the same. 

There should be no problems if you checkout on windows and run the
verification on windows.

What about if you have downloaded a ZIP of sources?
Comment 3 Jaroslav Tulach 2005-01-12 16:28:12 UTC 
Right, I'll fix it using fixcrlf task and by copying the golden file
to some temporary location.
