Report 0755 Actions Problem Report Number 0755 Submitter's Classification Specification problem State Resolved Resolution Temporary Interpretation (TIN) Problem Resolution ID TIN.X.0046 Raised 1970-01-01 08:00 Updated 2003-03-13 08:00 Published 1995-09-20 08:00 Product Standard Commands and Utilities V2 (UNIX 95) Certification Program The Open Brand certification program Test Suite VSC version 4.1.4 Test Identification POSIX.upe/vi 194, 264 Specification Commands and Utilities Issue 4 Version 2 Location in Spec See Problem Text Problem Summary TIN4C.00015 This test may fail on implementations that conform to POSIX 1003.2b/D11 vi behavior. Problem Text This test may fail on implementations that conform to POSIX 1003.2b/D11 vi behavior. The test assertions listed test an area of POSIX.2 which the POSIX.2 interpretation committe has determined to be in error (see IEEE interpretations PASC 1003.2-92 #64, question #33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 53, 54, 55; PASC 1003.2-92 #78, question #11, 15). Historically, c, C, s, and S commands only ripplied buffers if the region being replaced spanned at least one <newline>. The C command is equivalent to c$, in which case a single C command will NOT ripple the numeric buffers, because the motion $ does not include the <newline>. The correct behaviour is described in POSIX.2b draft.11 section 5.10.7.5 page 142 lines 848-860 and section 5.35.7.2.47 page 227 lines 3919-3922. Our implementation conforms to the draft POSIX.2b standard which mandates this historical practice. Since this area of the specification is subject to change, we request a temporary interpretation allowing historical practice.
