Updated 2004-06-23 06:58:42 by kroc

This is a cvs module of the tcllib sourceforge project.

[describe what it is]

SYNOPSIS

 runbench.tcl ?-option value ...? ?file ...?

DESCRIPTION

The runbench.tcl application provides the overall management for the execution of bench�� marks. If no specific benchmark files are provided on the command line itself the application will use all directory containing the application itself. If files are provided all files matching the glob pattern *tk* are assumed to be benchmarks for the Tk toolkit.

The following options are recognized by the application

-help
Causes the application to print a list of the recognized option plus short explanations of their meaning
-errors
Takes a boolean value (0 or 1). True means that errors are thrown, else they are ignored.
-iterations
The value of this option is a positive integer number and declares how often the body of benchmarks should be executed to get accurate timing results. This is a global maximum value which can be overidden by the individual benchmarks.
-minversion
Declares the minimum version of tcl interpreters the application is allowed to use in the benchmarking.
-maxversion
Declares the maximum version of tcl interpreters the application is allowed to use in the benchmarking.
-rmatch
Restricts the benchmarking to benchmarks whose description matches the regexp pattern specified as the value of this option. If both -match and -rmatch are specified benchmarks have to fulfill both conditions to be executed.
-match
Restricts the benchmarking to benchmarks whose description matches the glob pattern specified as the value of this option. If both -match and -rmatch are specified benchmarks have to fulfill both conditions to be executed.
-normalize
Takes a version number as value and causes the application to normalize the timing values to the value of the given version.

Kroc - 22/05/2004 : I've done a TclBench.kit (v 1.15) to test Tclkit performance. It includes Tcllib 1.6 and Tclx8.4 for linux and win32 but it should work on any platform. Download: http://www.kroc.tk/tclkit/TclBench.kit
