[Caml-list] Bisect_ppx: removing report output formats, etc.

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 665 bytes --]

Hello,

We are in the process of removing the following features from Bisect_ppx, as we don’t believe they are used:

- combine expressions (reporter’s -combine-expr)
- XML output
- EMMA output
- “bisect” output [1]
- point kinds (mentioned earlier [2])

We would also like to remove “dump” output, but we are using it internally for testing.

Please let me know of any objections.

Best,
Anton

I would like to clarify that -combine-expr is not about combining multiple output files as in

  bisect-ppx-report -html report *.out

That is not being removed.

-combine-expr is a separate feature that allows visitation counts of two or more separate sets of *.out files to be manipulated, for example by subtracting them, to obtain a new report.

Best,
Anton
