UTF to support checking strings that span multiple lines about utf

Do you think maybe we should just check to see that every line of output is matched by some string?

How should this work?

If I understand correctly, you want to be able to define a few expected strings, and as we check the program output, check off the expected strings one by one, until all the expected strings are accounted for? I think that could work equally as well, if not being more intuitive. I would enforce the order of occurrence for these strings just as preventive measure for potential bug masking. At one point I wrote a unit test and I expected this behavior.

Perhaps something like this, then?

#pragma out Hello world
print "Hello world"

#pragma out we need a test
#pragma out really badly
print "we need a test"

# Miscellaneous code that doesn't print stuff

print "really badly"

Sounds good to me. I agree it is more intuitive this way.

These tests don't pass on either version:

• ut_seattlelibtests_teststruct.py
• ut_repytests_testnetbothdup.py
• ut_repytests_testnetconndup.py
• ut_repytests_testrecvmessfunctions.py
• ut_repytests_testwaitforconnfunctions.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testgeoip_client.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testopenDHTadvertise.py

These tests did not finish running in a timely manner, on both versions:

• ut_repytests_testnetmessdup.py
• ut_repytests_testcleanup.py
• ut_repytests_testcleanupudp.py
• ut_repytests_testloopbind.py
• ut_repynetworktests_multiple_iface_trybind.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testhttpserver.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testparallelize.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testpyDes.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testrsa.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testsshkey.py
• ut_seattlelibtests_testxmlrpc.py

Aside from that, all other tests pass and are compatible with the new multi-line support.

Just a note, this is fixed with r6029.
