Thomas Heller 904ca11a87 Changes:
distutils/command/bdist_wininst.py:
- the windows installer is again able to compile after installing
  the files. Note: The default has changed, the packager has to
  give --no-target-compile/--no-target-optimize to NOT compile
  on the target system. (Another note: install_lib's --compile
  --optimize options have the same semantics to switch off
  the compilation. Shouldn't the names change?)
- All references to specific python versions are gone.
- A small bug:
    raise DistutilsPlatformError ("...")
  instead of
    raise DistutilsPlatformError, ("...")
- When bdist_wininst creates an installer for one specific python
  version, this is reflected in the name:
    Distutils-0.9.2.win32-py15.exe instead of
    Distutils-0.9.2.win32.exe
- bdist_wininst, when run as script, reads the wininst.exe file
  and rewrites itself. Previously this was done by hand.

misc/install.c
- All the changes needed for compilation
- Deleted a lot of debug/dead code

Greg Ward 1ac9802748 Rene Liebscher/Thomas Heller:
* ensure the "dist" directory exists
* raise exception if using for modules containing compiled extensions
  on a non-win32 platform.
* don't create an .ini file anymore (it was just for debugging)

Greg Ward 6f9320b9d1 Fix line-endings.
Fix bad operator precedence: should be "(metadata or '') + '\n'".

Greg Ward 018cbb15c0 New release of the Windows installer from Thomas Heller.
The known bug (bogus error message when an empty file is
extracted) is fixed.

Other changes:

- The target-compile and target-optimize flags of bdist_wininst
  are gone. It is no longer possible to compile the python
  files during installation.
- The zlib module is no longer required or used by bdist_wininst.

- I moved the decompression/extraction code into a separate
  file (extract.c).

- The installer stub is now compressed by UPX (see
  http://upx.tsx.org/). This reduces the size of the exe
  (and thus the overhead of the final installer program)
  from 40 kB to 16 kB.

- The installer displays a more uptodate user wizard-like
  user interface, also containing a graphic: Just's Python Powered logo.
  (I could not convince myself to use one of the BeOpen logos).
- The installation progress bar now moves correctly.

Greg Ward ab3a0f36ed Fixed imports from '*util' modules to not just import everything from util. 2000-08-05 01:31:54 +00:00
Greg Ward fd9f168bcf Fixed so the ZIP file (which is bundled into an executable) goes in the
temporary directory ('bdist_base').
Added --dist-dir option to control where the executable is put.

Greg Ward 5d6ae76c09 Allow 2.0 on the list of target versions. NB. this isn't enough: the GUI part,
misc/install.c, still needs to be updated, and it looks like a non-trivial
change.

Greg Ward b0b98a5ee5 Fixed to use 'reinitialize_command()' to fetch "install" and "install_lib"
command objects.
Various formatting tweaks, typo fixes in comments.
