Guido van Rossum 88716bba55 Revamped path access again, by Mark Hammond, to be more robust in the
light of three different situations: (1) running from build; (2)
running from installed; (3) running without being able to find an
installation (e.g. as a COM object).  The system paths in the
repository are only used for (3); the path deduced from the
installation location are used otherwise.  PYTHONHOME overrides in all
cases.

Read the comments for more details.

Guido van Rossum e02e48be6f Changes to completely ignore the registry when it detects that you are
running out of the build directory.  This means that it will no longer
try to use an older version of the library when an older version has
been installed.

Guido van Rossum 24edfbb61d Back out of a recent policy change (Mark Hammond disagreed).
The registry always comes first and the default is always appended.

Guido van Rossum 43ff114d2b Sigh. More restructuring was needed.
Make an explicit test for whether the prefix is in fact the
source directory, and then don't use the registry.

Guido van Rossum c499572a98 This file's previous log message is bogus. The real change is that
when it gets the path from the registry, it no longer appends the
default path to the end (which would mostly be a duplication).

Guido van Rossum 67ab67218b Different version games:
- MS_DLL_ID is now set to "1.5" instead of "1.5.x" so Mark Hammond's
  extensions won't have to be changed.
- FILEVERSION and PRODUCTVERSION are set to 1,5,2,1.
  (The last number could be the build# or the alpha release# or so.)

Guido van Rossum 8b2b3ce4be Two changes:
(1) Use Py_GetPythonHome() instead of getenv("PYTHONHOME");

(2) Mark Hammond's patch to search for .pyc/.pyo landmark as well.

Guido van Rossum 42a9744d5f Fix some outdated comments (mostly by removing a large comment block
that was only causing confusing).  Add free(userpath) and
free(machinepath) statements to prevent some leaks.

Guido van Rossum 691d2adeef Allocate one byte extra in some cases. 1997-12-11 02:32:43 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 271f977686 Seem to be some changes related to DLL version from string resource,
again (Mark Hammond is the cause of all this).

Guido van Rossum eea1449a34 Much rewritten. Added Win32 registry stuff (from getpath_nt.c, which
is now obsolete), and changed the default path calculations.
$PYTHONPATH is now added as a prefix (like it's always been on Unix);
$PYTHONHOME takes precedence over the program pathname; and only one
landmark is needed.
1997-08-13 21:30:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8f1b651980 Some changes to make it work on NT; add the directory where the binary
lives to the end of the path.

(Still to do: add $PYTHONPATH to the front instead of using it as is;
add the Win32 registry paths as in getpath_nt.c (which can then
retire).)
