It also provides a basic +functionality test for these tools. + +There are four archives stored in CVS with these tests: + +GNU.a - constructed on Linux with GNU ar +MacOSX.a - constructed on Mac OS X with its native BSD4.4 ar +SVR4.a - constructed on Solaris with /usr/ccs/bin/ar +xpg4.a - constructed on Solaris with /usr/xpg4/bin/ar + +Each type of test is run on each of these archive files. These archives each +contain four members: + +oddlen - a member with an odd lengthed name and content +evenlen - a member with an even lengthed name and content +IsNAN.o - a Linux native binary +very_long_bytecode_file_name.bc - LLVM bytecode file with really long name + +These files test different aspects of the archiver that should cause failures +in llvm-ar if regressions are introduced.
