#11859: Wrong handling of "," in Run-Parameters

  Reporter:  usenet@…      |      Owner:  renficiaud
      Type:  Bugs          |     Status:  assigned
 Milestone:  Boost 1.62.0  |  Component:  test
   Version:  Boost 1.60.0  |   Severity:  Optimization
Resolution:                |   Keywords:  test parameter run_test filter

Comment (by renficiaud):

 The pattern as described in the documentation is correct, however
 completely misleading. The coma operator is meant to indicate test units
 that are siblings:

 {{{
 --run_test=suite_1/test_1_1,suite_1/suite_1_2/test_1_2_1
 }}}

 should run the tests under suite1:

 {{{
 suite_1/test_1_1
 suite_1/suite_1/suite_1_2/test_1_2_1
 }}}
 which is not what you want.

 In order to specify several filters that are not indicating siblings test
 units, I just added the ':' in order to separate those filters. This also
 enables specifying several filters from the environment variable.

 This should be in develop in a couple of hours. Let's see if it goes to
 1.62.
