Is there a way to specifically run the tests on ecl using the byte compiler? If not, should we develop such a capability and add it to our test suite?I do not think this has been actually considered in the ASDF sources, but activating the bytecodes compiler (if it does not come active by default) is just
(ext::install-bytecodes-compiler)
while loading the ordinary compiler is done through
(require :cmp)
Currently, when we test ECL, we do neither of these (as far as I can tell).
Would we want to make two different versions of the ECL tests, as follows:
ecl-bytecomp : first compile and load asdf, then call INSTALL-BYTECODES-COMPILER, then run the tests.
ecl : first (require :CMP), then compile and load asdf, then run tests.
Question: does this recipe FORCE us to have the right compiler for the tests?
