This was refused because it is a duplicate. Use TIN4C.00012 instead.
POSIX.cmd/ed/ed_07.sh FAILED ASSERTION #315
What the test performs :
=========================
The test first performs :
"1,\$G/e/\r"
This marks the lines containing the character 'e' in the
input file ed_out_315_1 (has 4 lines). The result is that
all the four lines (all the four lines contain the character
'e') in the input file ed_out_315_1 are marked.
The test then performs the following substitutions :
Next, the test suite performs,
".,+++s/l/L/\r"
After the above substitute command, all the marked lines get
modified and unmarked. This is in compliance with the POSIX
standard P1003.2b/D11 May 95, page 52, Section 4.20.7.3.7 and
4.20.7.3.8, from line number 894 to line number 902.
After this substitution, all the lines in the buffer are
unmarked which signifies that the execution of the 'G'
command is complete.
This also means, that the last command which got successfully
executed is the substitute command and the current line is
set to the last line (line #4) of the file ed_out_315_1.
The above behaviour of ed(1) is in compliance with the
standard (IEEE Std 1003.2-1992, Section 4.20.7.3.8, Page 266,
line number 3783-3786), which quotes
"The final value of the current line number shall be the
value set by the last command successfully executed.
(The last command successfully executed shall be the G
command itself if a command fails or the null command is
specifed)."
and also the P1003.2b/D11 May95, Section 4.20.7.3.7 and
Section 4.20.7.3.8, Page 52, line number 896-899 which
quotes :
"Then, going sequentially from the beginning of the
file to the end of the file, the given command list
shall be executed for each marked line, with the
^^^^^^^^
current line number set so the address of that line.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Any line modified by the command list shall be
unmarked."
The test script then performs,
"-,++s/e/E/\r"
This is equivalent to substituting the character 'e' to 'E'
in lines .-1 to .+2 (i.e, the line previous to the current
line till two lines after the current line)
Since the current line in the buffer (after the execution of
the 'G' and subsequently the substitute command
(".,+++s/l/L/\r")) is the line #4, which is the last line in
the file, the reference to .++ in the substitute command
("-,++s/e/E/\r") is very well "out of range".
This results in ed(1) giving an error, which is the expected
behaviour of ed(1). We believe that this is a testsuite
deficiency and thus has to be waivered.
To fix the problem in the test suite :
========================================
The second substitution command ("-,++s/e/E/\r") should be
changed to address the valid range of lines (line #1 to line
#4) in the buffer.
