<h2>What are letest and gendata?</h2>
|
|
letest is a test program that you can use to verify the basic
|
|
functionality of the ICU LayoutEngine. It tests the LayoutEngine's
|
|
API and reads an XML file that contains test cases to test some of
|
|
the features of the LayoutEngine. These test cases are not
|
|
comprehensive, but they do test the most important features of
|
|
the LayoutEngine. When you have successfully run letest, you
|
|
can use the ICU LayoutEngine in you application knowing that the
|
|
basic functionality is working correctly.<br>
|
|
<p>gendata is a program that is used by the ICU team to build the
|
|
file letest.xml which contains the test cases. Unless you have
|
|
changed your copy of the LayoutEngine and want to validate the
|
|
changes on other platforms, there's no reason for you to run this
|
|
program.</p>
|
|
<p>(The ICU team first runs a Windows application which uses the
|
|
ICU LayoutEngine to display the text that letest uses. Once it has
|
|
been verified that the text is displayed correctly, gendata is run
|
|
to produce letest.xml, and then letest is run on Windows to verify
|
|
that letest still works with the new data.)<br></p>
|
|
<h2>How do I build letest?</h2>
|
|
First, you need to build ICU, including the LayoutEngine.
|
|
<p>On Windows, letest is part of the allinone project, so a normal
|
|
build of ICU will also build letest. On UNIX systems, connect to
|
|
<top-build-dir>/test/letest and do "make all" .<br></p>
|
|
<h2>How do I run letest?</h2>
|
|
Before you can run letest, you'll need to get the fonts it uses.
|
|
For legal reasons, we can't include most of them with ICU, but you
|
|
can download them from the web. To do this, you'll need access to a
|
|
computer running Windows. All of the fonts should be stored in
|
|
<icu>/source/test/testdata. Here's how to get the fonts:
|
|
<p>Download a recent version of the Java 2 Platform, Standard
|
|
Edition (J2SE) from <a href=
|
|
"http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.html">java.sun.com</a>.
|
|
Click on the "Download" button for the version of Java that you
|
|
want to download. The page offers both JDKs and JREs. (The JRE is
|
|
sufficient for letest.) The download page will have a link to the
|
|
license agreement. Be sure to read and understand the license
|
|
agreement, and then click on the Accept button. Download the
|
|
package and install it. You'll need one font. On Windows, it will
|
|
be in, for example, "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\jre\lib\fonts".
|
|
The file you want is "LucidaSansRegular.ttf". Copy this file into
|
|
the directory from which you'll run letest.<br></p>
|
|
<p>Next is the Hindi font. Go to the NCST site and download
|
|
<a href="http://tdil.mit.gov.in/download/Raghu.htm">raghu.ttf</a>.
|
|
When you hit the DOWNLOAD button on the page, it will open another
|
|
window which contains a disclaimer and a license agreement. Be sure
|
|
that you understand and agree to all of this before you download
|
|
the font. You can download raghu.ttf into the directory from which
|
|
you'll run letest.<br></p>
|
|
<p>Then download the Thai font. Go to <a href=
|
|
"http://www.into-asia.com/thai_language/thaifont/">into-asia.com</a>
|
|
and click on the link for the Angsana font. This will download a
|
|
.ZIP file. Extract the font file, angsd___.ttf, into the directory
|
|
from which you will run letest.<br></p>
|
|
<p>There's still one more font to get, the Code2000 Unicode font.
|
|
Go to James Kass' <a href="http://www.code2000.net/">Unicode
|
|
Support In Your Browser</a> page and click on the link that says
|
|
"Click Here to download Code2000 shareware demo Unicode font." This
|
|
will download a .ZIP file which contains CODE2000.TTF and
|
|
CODE2000.HTM. Expand this .ZIP file and put the CODE2000.TTF file
|
|
in the directory from which you'll run letest.<br></p>
|
|
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Note:</span> The Code2000 font
|
|
is shareware. If you want to use it for longer than a trial period,
|
|
you should send a shareware fee to James. Directions for how to do
|
|
this are in CODE2000.HTM.</p>
|
|
<p>letest.xml references three other fonts:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>ARIALUNI.TTF is Microsoft's Arial Unicode MS font, which is
|
|
distributed with Microsoft Office and is licensed only for use on
|
|
the Windows operating system.</li>
|
|
<li>Devamt.ttf is a proprietary font which cannot be freely
|
|
downloaded.</li>
|
|
<li>TestFont1.otf is included with ICU.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
To run letest type CTRL+F5 in Visual Studio, or "make check" in
|
|
UNIX. If everything's OK you should see something like this:
|
|
<blockquote><tt> /<br>
|
|
/api/<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/api/ParameterTest<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/api/FactoryTest<br>
|
|
/layout/<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/layout/AccessTest<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/layout/DataDrivenTest<br>
|
|
/c_api/<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/c_api/ParameterTest<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/c_api/FactoryTest<br>
|
|
/c_layout/<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/c_layout/AccessTest<br>
|
|
---[OK] ---/c_layout/DataDrivenTest<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
[All tests passed successfully...]<br>
|
|
Elapsed Time: 00:00:00.351<br></tt></blockquote>
|
|
If letest cannot open a font, it will print a warning message and
|
|
skip the test. letest will also check the version of the font you
|
|
have to make sure it's the same one that was used to generate the
|
|
test case. If the version doesn't match, letest will print a
|
|
warning message and proceed with the test.<br>
