Chapter 2 Using the Signature Test Tool 21
-CheckValue Specifies to check the values of primitive and
string constants. This option generates an error if
a signature file does not contain the data
necessary for constant checking.
-NoCheckValue Specifies not to check the values of primitive and
string constants.
-ClassCacheSize size_of_cache Optional. Used in static mode only. Default is
1024. Specifies the size of the class cache as a
number of classes to be held in memory to reduce
execution time. Increasing this value dedicates
more memory to this function.
-classpath path Optional. Specifies the path to one or more APIs
to be tested. Defaults to the classes contained in
the signature file under test. Can contain multiple
directories or ZIP or JAR files. The
-package
argument filters the set of classes specified in
-classpath (see “CLASSPATH and
-classpath Settings” on page 10). Uses the path
separator appropriate for the platform (identified
by
java.io.File.pathSeparator).
-TestURL URL Optional. Specifies the directory location of the
signature file as a
file protocol URL:
file://path
Must end in a trailing forward slash on a UNIX
system or a backslash on a Microsoft Windows or
DOS system.
-FileName file_name Required if -Files is not specified.. Specifies
the name of a signature file to be used.
-Files file_names Required if -FileName is not specified. Use this
argument for testing a combination of APIs
represented by corresponding signature files.
Specifies the names of the signature files to be
used delimited by a file separator. The file
separator on UNIX systems is a colon (:)
character, and on Microsoft Windows systems it
is a semicolon (;). See “Signature File Merge
Rules” on page 11 for details on the rules used for
merging.
