Tim Peters 6a1e76b2bd Update master Windows build-number list for 2.2.1c2. 2002-03-25 19:35:58 +00:00
Tim Peters 1221c0a435 Build obmalloc.c directly instead of #include'ing from object.c.
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.

Tim Peters 6f0699bc09 SF bug #478949 Windows installer start menu registry.
I'm guessing at this, pending more info from the bug submitter.  Wise
changed how the %GROUP% vrbl got defined between versions 5.0a (used
before Python 2.2) and 8.14, to hold the full path to Start Menu group
instead of just the group name.  If I'm guessing correctly, the info
the bug report is complaining about is in one of the registry keys
we set up that neither Windows nor Python cares about.  We did store
a full path there in 2.2b1 instead of just the group name; the patch cuts
it back to just the name again.

Still broken:  GETTIMEOFDAY.  This macro obviously isn't being defined
on Windows, so there's logic errors here I'd rather Fred untangled.

Tim Peters 0af6703a71 If all of Python, IDLE and Tcl/Tk are being installed, and the user has
not disabled file-extension registration, arrange for .py and .pyw files
to have an "Edit with IDLE" context (right-click) menu entry, selecting
which executes IDLE w/ the -e switch followed by the selected file's path.

Tim Peters fc7265ab42 Wise uninstallers never delete the Python DLL from the system directory.
They should.  Added a line that's supposed to fix that -- it doesn't
actually work on my box, but checking it in anyway.

Tim Peters 591f71b1d4 New, larger installer bitmap from Erik van Blokland. Added more
vertical whitespace to the acknowledgements portion of the "Installation
Completed!" screen for easier reading.

Tim Peters 68db9dd07a Now that the dialogs have some breathing room, split the combo of Tcl/Tk,
IDLE and pydoc into a separate component.  That's almost as big as the
rest of Python (excl. docs and test suite) combined.

Pop up a confimation box if they choose to install at least one of
{Tcl/Tk/IDLE/pydoc, Tools, Test suite} but do not choose to install
Python -- doesn't make much sense, so ask whether that's really what they
want.
2001-08-11 04:01:31 +00:00
Tim Peters f5d3505e21 Grow the dialogs 25%, to make room for a nicer bitmap (in progress; don't
have it yet).

Tim Peters 36a90f61e8 Thanks to
LettError, Erik van Blokland, http://www.letterror.com/
the Python Windows installer finally has an attractive Pythonic bitmap
to delight the senses and dampen the fears of the millions and millions of
eager new Windows users anticipating their first Python programming joy.

Always knew Mac users secretly wanted to switch to Windows <wink>.

Tim Peters ce42a8ec68 Add the new Tools/compiler/README to the WIndows install, as README.txt.
In the Wise installer's "Advanced Options" dialog, substitute in the
actual name of "the system directory" -- this is clearer, and especially
for people reading this dialog who aren't me <wink>.
2001-08-08 19:32:25 +00:00
Tim Peters ae5262ef32 + Turn off patch creation (this isn't a patch release! got turned on by
mistake).
+ Arrange for Win2K Add/Remove to show a Python icon.

I think this "does it" -- a full install/uninstall can now be done on a
Win2K box from an ordinary (not Admin, not Power User) user acct, incl.
file extension registration, Start Menu entries, and full Add/Remove.
2001-08-06 20:01:19 +00:00
Tim Peters 223ec936f1 + Made installer more reluctant to overwrite MS C runtime DLLs -- it's
been overwriting them even if they have the same version, not just if
  they're an older version (and our installers have always done this).
+ Added an "Advanced Options" subdialog to "Select Components".  Allows
  to do a non-admin install even if you have Administrator rights, and
  to skip registering file extensions and/or creating Start Menu
  shortcuts.  Since so far these installers have been tested only by me,
  and Win2K has been full of surprises, I want those options available
  out in the field.
Lots of web searching turned up what should have been obvious:  Because
Windows Installer is a native Win2K service, it can run at a higher
privilege level than the user invoking it.  So MSI installs don't bash
into these permission gotchas on Win2K, but Wise 8.1 does (it's just
another app to Win2K, and we're not alone in wrestling with this; but,
like changing int division in Python, Win2K is doing a right thing <wink>).
2001-08-05 13:58:48 +00:00
Tim Peters 45e5e72eb8 Rename pydoc.pyw to pydocgui.pyw: Since we changed Python to allow .pyw
files to satisfy imports, pydoc.pyw was just importing itself!
2001-08-05 05:43:20 +00:00
Tim Peters b39fa0e0fa + Redid file associations on Win2K in what I believe is "the right way".
Can't test it until getting to a Win2K box, because the non-Admin way
  of setting file associations on Win2K doesn't work on any other flavor
  of Windows (and other flavors of Windows never need Admin privs to
  do it the old way).
+ Consequently got rid of the "Register file associations" Component and
  associated GUI.
+ Added a line to the summary saying whether or not this is an Admin-level
  install (I fear that will be an important clue someday).
+ Minor fiddling to the summary to reduce the # of lines.  Added a
  horizontal scrollbar in case the install path is very long.
+ Reworked the way the Main and Tools components share pydoc.pyw; cleaner
  and simpler.
2001-08-05 05:19:15 +00:00
Tim Peters 67b9adaa87 New runtime vrbl DOADMIN. When false, we never try to write under HKLM,
and install the Python and MS runtime DLLs into the Python dir instead of
a system dir.
Initial value is taken from new compiler vrbl _DOADMIN_ (default true),
and forced to false if the user doesn't have admin privs.
This makes it possible to *test* non-admin installs on machines where the
distinction doesn't exist (like my home box), via just changing _DOADMIN_.
It may also be useful for users who don't *want* an installer to
scribble into their system dir (for example, me(! most days)), but that
would require adding more GUI to let them get at it.
2001-08-05 04:12:30 +00:00
Tim Peters 4de219d511 + Add version info to Win2K add/remove.
+ Fiddle vrbls so Win2K add/remove can display version w/o future manual
  script fiddling.
+ Break apart the mysterious wizard-generated Win2K "Edit 3 Registry Keys"
  script items by hand into 3 separate items, so you can see what the heck
  they're doing in the script view.
+ pydoc.pyw was a problem:  it's installed by both the Main and Tools
  components.  So when both were selected, the second time it got
  installed Wise figured it was overwriting a pre-existing version, and
  made a backup copy in BACKUP.  A rollback-uninstall then restored that,
  leaving the Tools/Scripts/ directory non-empty, and so Wise couldn't
  remove that directory (or any above it).  Fixed by installing pydoc.pyw
  at most once.
+ Rearranged and commented the "register file extensions" section, because
  it was confusing and needs more work:  turns out it's not true that
  Win2K requires Admin privs to register file extensions, BUT, if you
  don't have Admin privs, Win2K requires a new way to register file
  extensions, and a way that doesn't blow up but doesn't do any good either
  on earlier Windows flavors.  I think I know how to get this done, but am
  too depressed to do it right now <0.7 wink>.
