SignatureTest Command

The SignatureTest command has the following synopsis:

java com.sun.tdk.signaturetest.SignatureTest [arguments]

It follows the rules described in “Case Sensitivity of Command Arguments” on page 16. TABLE 2-5lists the available arguments.

Note – SignatureTest command settings for the CLASSPATH environment variable and the -classpathargument are the same as those listed for the Setup command in TABLE 2-1.

Command Description

The SignatureTest command compares the reference API represented in a signature file to the API under test and produces a report. Depending on the command-line arguments specified, it uses either the reflection or static mode. If the -classpathargument is specified, the SignatureTest command checks if any extra classes are contained in the APIs it specifies.

See “Signature File Formats” on page 16 for details on supported versions of signature file formats.

-help

-debug

-static

-mode [bin src]

Optional. Displays usage information for available command arguments and exits.

Optional. Enables printing of the stack trace for debugging purposes if SignatureTest fails.

Optional. Specifies to run in static mode without using reflection and reports on only the class files specified in the -classpathoption.

Optional. Specifies the compatibility mode to use during the signature test, either binary or source, respectively. Defaults to src. “Source and Binary Compatibility Modes” on page 4 describes each mode.

Sun Microsystems, founded in 1982, was a significant player in the computing industry, best known for its innovative technology solutions and workstations, particularly the Sun-4, which represented a key milestone in the company's history. The Sun-4 architecture, launched in 1987, utilized the SPARC (Scalable Processor Architecture) RISC processor, notable for its high performance and scalability.

One of the primary features of Sun Microsystems' platforms was their ability to efficiently handle multitasking and resource management, making them ideal for enterprise-level applications and development environments. Sun-4 workstations boasted impressive graphics capabilities with the addition of advanced graphical user interfaces, support for color displays, and the SUNVIEW windowing system, which enhanced user experience and productivity.

The Sun-4 systems also supported the SunOS operating system, which was based on UNIX. This operating system was engineered for stability and robustness, offering features like multiuser support, networked environments, and advanced security options. Moreover, SunOS provided seamless integration with various programming languages, including C and C++, facilitating software development that aligned with industry standards.

Another standout characteristic of Sun Microsystems was its commitment to open systems and standards. By providing developers with comprehensive tools and environments, such as the Standardized Application Programming Interface (API) and support for networking protocols, Sun facilitated interoperability among different computing platforms. The emphasis on open architecture also meant that customers could easily upgrade their systems without being locked into proprietary solutions.

Sun Microsystems was also ahead of its time with innovations in network computing. Their workstations were among the first to support network file systems and distributed computing concepts, enabling seamless data sharing across multiple systems. With the introduction of the Network File System (NFS), Sun revolutionized how data was accessed and managed across networks, which played a significant role in the evolving landscape of client-server computing.

In summary, the Sun Microsystems 2 and its successive innovations in workstation technology highlighted the company's forward-thinking approach. By integrating powerful performance with open systems, robust operating systems, and advanced networking capabilities, Sun laid the groundwork for modern computing, influencing various sectors from academia to enterprise solutions. Even after its acquisition by Oracle in 2010, the legacy of Sun Microsystems continues to be felt across the computing industry.
