In particular, fix extension module build failures when trying to use
32-bit-only installer Pythons on systems with Xcode 4 (currently
OS X 10.8, 10.7, and optionally 10.6).
* Backport 3.3.0 fixes to 2.7 branch (for release in 2.7.4)
* Since Xcode 4 removes ppc support, extension module builds now
check for ppc compiler support and by default remove ppc and
ppc64 archs when they are not available.
* Extension module builds now revert to using system installed
headers and libs (/usr and /System/Library) if the SDK used
to build the interpreter is not installed or has moved.
* Try to avoid building extension modules with deprecated
and problematic Apple llvm-gcc compiler. If original compiler
is not available, use clang instead by default.
Without this patch python will fail to start properly when the environment
variable MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is set on MacOSX and has a value that is
not compatible with the value during Python's build. This is caused by code
in sysconfig that was only meant to be used in disutils.
to "sys.platform == 'mac'" and that is
dead code because it refers to a platform
that is no longer supported (and hasn't been
supported for several releases).
Fixes issue #7908 for the trunk.
for the machine ("i386" or "ppc"), even if the executable is
64-bit.
This patchs ensures that the distutils platform architecture
represents the architecture for the executable when running a
64-bit only executable on OSX.
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
--with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]
When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).
This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.
I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.
callable() from copy_reg.py, so the interpreter now starts up
without warnings when '-3' is given. More work like this needs to
be done in the rest of the stdlib.
As discussed on distutils-sig: Allows the generated installer name on
64bit Windows platforms to be different than the name generated for
32bit Windows platforms.
This patchs makes it possible to create a universal build on OSX 10.4 and use
the result to build extensions on 10.3. It also makes it possible to override
the '-arch' and '-isysroot' compiler arguments for specific extensions.
This is a conservative version of SF patch 504889. It uses the log
module instead of calling print in various places, and it ignores the
verbose argument passed to many functions and set as an attribute on
some objects. Instead, it uses the verbosity set on the logger via
the command line.
The log module is now preferred over announce() and warn() methods
that exist only for backwards compatibility.
XXX This checkin changes a lot of modules that have no test suite and
aren't exercised by the Python build process. It will need
substantial testing.
prevent binding for str from masking use of builtin str in nested
function.
(This is the only case I found in the standard library where a local
shadows a global or builtin. There may be others, but the regression
test doesn't catch them.)
