Stephan Bergmann db3a61cd95 Generally determine Rdb content from gb_*_set_componentfile calls
...instead of by listing the content somewhat redundantly in the Rdb_*.mk
files, to avoid duplication of logic for components that are only built
conditionally (and thus should only be included conditionally in the
corresponding Rdb).  To achieve that, add an "rdb" parameter to
gb_ComponentTarget_ComponentTarget (and to the gb_*_set_componentfile macros
that internally call gb_ComponentTarget_ComponentTarget), which is used to make
the appropriate gb_Rdb_add_component call internally from within
gb_ComponentTarget_ComponentTarget.  (As a special case,
gb_CppunitTest_set_componentfile shall not call gb_Rdb_add_component, as that
has already been done by the corresponding gb_Library_set_componentfile call, so
allow the gb_ComponentTarget_ComponentTarget "rdb" parameter to be empty to
support that special case.)

Most Rdb_*.mk files are thus mostly empty now.  One exception is
i18npool/Rdb_saxparser.mk, which duplicates some of the Rdb_services content as
needed during the build in CustomTarget_i18npool/localedata.

1c9a40299d "gbuild: create services.rdb from built
components" had already tried to do something similar (in addition to other
things) under a new --enable-services-rdb-from-build option.  However, that
approach had four drawbacks that this approach here addresses (and which thus
partly reverts 1c9a40299d):

1  Rdb_services shall not contain the component files of all libraries that are
built.  While that commit filtered out the component files that go into
Rdb_ure/services (ure/Rdb_ure.mk), it failed to filter out the component files
that go into others like Rdb_postgresql-sdbc
(connectivity/Rdb_postgresql-sdbc.mk).

2  The code added by that commit to Makefile.gbuild codified the knowledge that
there is an Rdb_services, which is brittle.

3  The code added by that commit to solenv/gbuild/Rdb.mk codified the knowledge
(for gb_Rdb__URECOMPONENTS) that there is an Rdb_ure/services, which is brittle.

4  Introducing an --enable-services-rdb-from-build option needlessly provided
two different ways how the content of Rdb_services is assembled.

The changes done here would leave --enable-services-rdb-from-build as a
misnomer, as it no longer controls how Rdb_services is assembled.  I thus
renamed it to --enable-customtarget-components, as that is apparently what it
still does now.

Testing Tools

How to Check Compatibility Between Compilers

Since the interfaces used in the cpp bridgetest are not changed often one can just build the cppobj.uno.dll and the constructors.uno.dll (testtools/source/bridgetest) in an old environment and then use them in the new environment. That is the files are copied into the testtools/wntmsciXX.pro folder which corresponds to the new environment.

On Windows this test will typically fail because the tests use the cppu::getCaughtException function, which only works when all libs are build using the same runtime.

This part of the test can switched off. To do this go into the testtools/source/bridgetest folder and call

dmake compcheck=1

This will add a new compiler define (-DCOMPCHECK) and will be used in the bridgetest.cxx to switch off the code which uses the getCaughtException function. However, there is still a test which causes the test component to throw and IllegalArgumentException. This still works.

Using source / bridgetest for Stress Testing

Start a modified bridgetest_server (with the final --singleaccept argument removed from the uno executable call) or a modified bridgetest_javaserver (with the final singleaccept argument replaced with multi in the java executable call), then start a modified bridgetest_client (with a final stress argument added to the uno executable call). The client will continuously establish connections to the server which are immediately destroyed again. The test will run forever, unless an error occurs.
