When the solution is converted to Visual Studio 2010, the command line to invoke make_buildinfo changes from:
$(SolutionDir)make_buildinfo.exe" Debug "$(IntDir)\"
to
$(SolutionDir)make_buildinfo.exe" Debug "$(IntDir)"
If the final backslash is omitted, the backslash in IntDir will escape the quote, thus passing the quote in as part of the path name.
This solution is a hack-fix to that problem by skipping any trailing quote from the path name. It works as long as we don't need any additional arguments to make_buildinfo.exe. This will help all those sould that are going to run this project through the visual studio autoconverter and get the same error.
make_buildinfo regression with unquoted path
Make_buildinfo.exe should be called with a quoted path, and should quote the full paths to its temp files, to support spaces in filenames.
number of tests, all because of the codecs/_multibytecodecs issue described
here (it's not a Py3K issue, just something Py3K discovers):
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-April/064051.html
Hye-Shik Chang promised to look for a fix, so no need to fix it here. The
tests that are expected to break are:
test_codecencodings_cn
test_codecencodings_hk
test_codecencodings_jp
test_codecencodings_kr
test_codecencodings_tw
test_codecs
test_multibytecodec
This merge fixes an actual test failure (test_weakref) in this branch,
though, so I believe merging is the right thing to do anyway.
