New description:

 The Database::check() API (which xapian-check uses) currently has no test
 cases.

 ----
 ''Original description:''

 The xapian-compact and xapian-check utilities have no test cases.

 If bug #175 were fixed (so that the xapian-compact functionality was
 available
 in the C++ API) it would be possible to implement such tests as part of
 apitest.

 It might also be generally useful to have a C++ API for xapian-check.

 Therefore, I'm marking this bug as being blocked by #175, since if we're
 going
 to fix #175 that would be the easiest way to implement tests.

Comment:

 I've added an API for checking databases in r16316.  There are currently
 no tests of this API, but it will at least now be a bit easier to write
 such tests.

 Updated the summary and description to reflect this change.
