compiler flags which are necessary to get a clean compile. The former is
for user-specified optimizer, debug, trace fiddling. See patch 640843.
Add /sw/lib and /sw/include to setup.py search paths on Darwin to take
advantage of fink goodies.
Add scriptsinstall target to Makefile to install certain scripts from
Tools/scripts directory.
knows about plat-mac subdirectories, and configure adds a variable
EXTRAPLATDIR. These together take care of copying Lib/plat-mac to
the destination on darwin.
Adding plat-mac is still done with a .pth file which is only created when
you do a framework build. I'm not 100% happy with this, but fixing it
really needs a functional pythonw in non-framework builds, and I don't
think I can do that before 2.3a1 (but I'll try:-).
env.
This adds @CFLAGS@ and @CPPFLAGS@ to the end of the respective
variable definitions. It also adds $(LDFLAGS) to the $(CC) invocation
to build $(PGEN).
Immediate benefit: when you use "make -t" to avoid a global recompile
after a trivial header file touchup, Make will no longer create files
named all, oldsharedmods, and sharedmods.
(Not sure if I tracked down all such targets. Not sure if I care.)
the framework, the MacOSX apps and the unix tools.
Most of the hard work is done by Mac/OSX/Makefile.
Also, it should now be possible to install in a different directory,
such as /tmp/dist/Library/Frameworks, for building binary installers.
The fink crowd wanted this.
if we are running in an OSX framework enabled build directory, test that
the framework infrastructure exists. This catches the very common
error of doing "make install" in stead of "make frameworkinstall".
us to completely decouple the framework from the executable, so we
can use a two-level namespace.
- Do framework builds with a twolevel namespace.
- Reorganized the code that creates the minimal framework in the build
directory, to make it more robust against incomplete frameworks (from
earlier aborted builds, or builds of previous Python versions).
This patch fixes make install for Cygwin. Specifically,
it reverts to the previous behavior:
o install libpython$(VERSION)$(SO) in $(BINDIR)
o install $(LDLIBRARY) in $(LIBPL)
It also begins to remove Cygwin's dependency on
$(DLLLIBRARY) which I hope to take advantage of
when I attempt to make Cygwin as similar as possible
to the other Unix platforms (in other patches).
I tested this patch under Red Hat Linux 7.1 without
any ill effects.
BTW, I'm not the happiest using the following
test for Cygwin:
test "$(SO)" = .dll
I'm willing to update the patch to use:
case "$(MACHDEP)" in cygwin*
instead, but IMO that will look uglier.
OSX framework build process. Things fixed/modified:
- the filesystem case-sensitivity test now works for builds outside
the source directory
- various other fixes for building outside the source directory
- python.app now has a target in the main Makefile
- WASTE and AquaTk are found more automatically
This patch removes a vestige part of the Cygwin make rules
that didn't quite make it over during the flattening of the
Makefiles. In its current form, it creates a def file but
incorrectly calls it libpython$(VERSION).dll.a which
immediately gets overwritten by the next command.
Obviously, this is useless. It appears, it was useless
in the old nested Makefile structure too. :,)
PEP 285. Everything described in the PEP is here, and there is even
some documentation. I had to fix 12 unit tests; all but one of these
were printing Boolean outcomes that changed from 0/1 to False/True.
(The exception is test_unicode.py, which did a type(x) == type(y)
style comparison. I could've fixed that with a single line using
issubtype(x, type(y)), but instead chose to be explicit about those
places where a bool is expected.
Still to do: perhaps more documentation; change standard library
modules to return False/True from predicates.
Also move all _PyMalloc_XXX entry points into obmalloc.c.
The Windows build works fine.
The Unix build is changed here (Makefile.pre.in), but not tested.
No other platform's build process has been fiddled.
1. configure doesn't handle HP-UX release numbers
(e.g., B.11.00), resulting in MACHDEP = "hpuxB".
2. After checking for wchar.h, configure doesn't
include it when checking the size of wchar_t.
(Python 2.2b1 on HP-UX 11.00)
This is a big one, touching lots of files. Some of the platforms
aren't tested yet. Briefly, this changes the return value of the
os/posix functions stat(), fstat(), statvfs(), fstatvfs(), and the
time functions localtime(), gmtime(), and strptime() from tuples into
pseudo-sequences. When accessed as a sequence, they behave exactly as
before. But they also have attributes like st_mtime or tm_year. The
stat return value, moreover, has a few platform-specific attributes
that are not available through the sequence interface (because
everybody expects the sequence to have a fixed length, these couldn't
be added there). If your platform's struct stat doesn't define
st_blksize, st_blocks or st_rdev, they won't be accessible from Python
either.
(Still missing is a documentation update.)
