Bug 45651 – jscPath() is incorrect in Windows' cmd.exe shell

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Tools / Tests

[Csaba Osztrogonác]

http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/63463 broke run-javascriptore-tests,
run-sunspider, ... scripts with QtWebKit on Windows, because
$productDir/$jscName isn't exist, but $productDir/$jscName.exe.

exe suffix is neccessary when you test file existance,
but unneccessary when you execute the binarty.

http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/63463:
-    return "$productDir/$jscName";
+    return "$productDir/$jscName" if -e "$productDir/$jscName";
+    return "$productDir/JavaScriptCore.framework/Resources/$jscName";

This doesn't strike me as a Qt-specific issue.

It shouldn't be Qt specific issue, but I'm not sure.

On Apple Windows port run-javascriptcore-tests works correctly,
it seems the file existance check works without "exe" suffix
inside cygwin. I will check it ASAP.

proposed fix:
+    $jscName .= ".exe" if (isWindows() || isCygwin());

The root of the problem was that ' if -e "executableBinary" ' is false 
with ActiveState perl on Windows in cmd.exe shell, but true in CygWin 
shell if executableBinary.exe exist, but executableBinary doesn't.

It is a misleading perl feature what we should avoid, so I 
propose to add ".exe" suffix for Windows and CygWin platform too.
