change the version number is no longer required.
Instead, a make_versioninfo.exe is compiled, which spits out an
include file for python_nt.rc.
Will backport to 2.3
PC/python_nt.rc sets up the DLL version resource (displayed when you
right-click on the DLL and select Properties).
PCbuld/python20.wse sets up the installer version resource (displayed
when you right-click on the installer .exe and select Properties). Turns
out this one hadn't been updated since 2001 <frown>!
SF patch #103683: Alternative dll version resources.
Changes similar to the patch. MarkH should review.
File version and Product version text strings now 2.1a2.
64-bit file and product version numbers are now
PY_MAJOR_VERSION, PY_MINOR_VERSION, messy, PYTHON_API_VERSION
where
messy = PY_MICRO_VERSION*1000 + PY_RELEASE_LEVEL*10 + PY_RELEASE_SERIAL
Updated company name to "Digital Creations 2".
Copyright now lists Guido; "C in a circle" symbol used instead of (C).
Comments added so this is less likely to get flubbed again, and
#if/#error guys added to trigger if the version number manipulations
above overflow.
- 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.)
