If the url contains 'ctan', try to determine the correct url depending
of the components to deside if using 'https://www.ctan.org' or rather
https://mirrors.ctan.org.
Without 'ctan' try to check https:// instead of ftp:// or http://
The files will be locatet in the build-directory "Testing/Temporary" as
LastFailedAccessibleURLS.log
LastFailedInaccessibleURLS.log
LastFailedKnownInvalidURLS.log
If a perl-submodule exits with 'die()', the process would stop
and the following urls would not be tested.
The bug detection and idea how to solve it: Scott Kostyshak.
Now all urls we use in our provided lyx-files
(doc, examples, templates)
use urls which really exist.
(If a url was meant merely as an example,
it was not touched, but added to file 'knownInvalidURLS'.)
These tests check for broken URLs in the URL insets of
the manuals, examples, and templates.
The tests are disabled by default because the Perl interpreter
is needed.
Later on they can be activated with a flag, as follows:
cmake ... -DLYX_ENABLE_URLTESTS=ON
but for now the connection from the TOP-CMakeLists.txt is left out.
Missing part:
1.) Declaring an setting the option
LYX_OPTION(ENABLE_URLTESTS "Enable for URL tests" OFF ALL)
2.) make the connection
if(LYX_ENABLE_URLTESTS)
add_subdirectory(development/checkurls "${TOP_BINARY_DIR}/checkurls")
endif()
