642769 - We want all mmgc debug options to be controllable thru command line switches

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Tamarin Graveyard :: Virtual Machine, defect)

Description

[Lars T Hansen]

At least in debug builds!  Ideally each switch should be available if the #ifdefs align to include the feature the switch controls but that could be messy.

The obvious canidate - the reason for this bug - is the DRC history functionality, but why not the others?  Plus I want all of those switches to imply turning on the memory profiler so that the environment variable is not necessary.  I also want a switch to turn on memory profiling without requiring the environment variable.

"The tamarin-redux/test/cmdline testsuite is a basic way to run a shell with flags and verify output matches a regexp and/or exit code matched an expected value.  We have some simple debugger tests.  See test/cmdline/testDebugger.py.  If you add details in the bug you logged adding a testcase should be no problem."
