Opening the WISE script changes a few items:
I have a different WISE version, and it's installed in a different directory.
My sytem directory is somewhere else.

Fri, 14 Nov 2003 19:07:21 +0000

Set version to 2.3.3a0.

It would be better if this would be done immediately after a release
is out ;-)

Never redistribute MS dlls from the system directory.

Thu, 16 Oct 2003 19:02:46 +0000

Never redistribute MS dlls from the system directory.

So I removed all those \windows\system options.

Wed, 01 Oct 2003 18:24:06 +0000

Prepare for the release of 2.3.2.

SF bug 778400: IDLE hangs when selecting "Edit with IDLE".

Tue, 29 Jul 2003 17:22:57 +0000

SF bug 778400: IDLE hangs when selecting "Edit with IDLE".
The fix is confined to the Windows installer.

Not a bugfix candidate: the need for the new -n switch added here was
introduced by moving to the idlefork IDLE (so this change isn't needed
or helpful before 2.3).

Updated Windows installer for 2.3 final.

Tue, 29 Jul 2003 00:29:44 +0000

Updated Windows installer for 2.3 final.

Update version numbers and dates for 2.3c2 -- we won't be able to do this

Thu, 24 Jul 2003 00:15:46 +0000

Update version numbers and dates for 2.3c2 -- we won't be able to do this
during the day tomorrow, so doing it earlier than I'd like.

For my convenience in building installers, added a makes-sense-on-my-box

Fri, 18 Jul 2003 21:11:36 +0000

For my convenience in building installers, added a makes-sense-on-my-box
choice to the list of places MS redistributables might be found.

Bump the release number to 2.3c1.

Thu, 17 Jul 2003 14:48:26 +0000

"Support IDLE Edit of .py/.pyw from idlelib"

Some Windows changes preparing for 2.3b2.

Fri, 27 Jun 2003 15:49:35 +0000

Some Windows changes preparing for 2.3b2.

Install IDLE's .def files; these are essential for the configuration!

Sun, 15 Jun 2003 20:40:33 +0000

Install IDLE's .def files; these are essential for the configuration!
Also install the start script from Tools/script/idle. (This may
change again.)

Sun, 15 Jun 2003 19:42:39 +0000

Changes to install the new idle: it's now in Lib/idlelib instead of
Tools/idle, in both source and destination. (There are still problems
when running the IDLE icon, but they don't seem to have to do with the
installer.)

Effectively renamed tokenize_tests.py to have a txt extension instead.

Mon, 12 May 2003 19:42:04 +0000

Effectively renamed tokenize_tests.py to have a txt extension instead.
This file isn't meant to be executed, it's data input for test_tokenize.py.
The problem with the .py extension is that it uses "non-standard"
indentation, and it's good to test that, but reindent.py keeps wanting
to fix it. But fixing the indentation causes the expected-output file to
change, since exact line and column numbers are part of the
tokenize.tokenize() output getting tested.

Leading "C:" no longer hardcoded in the default installation directory.

Thu, 08 May 2003 18:13:59 +0000

Leading "C:" no longer hardcoded in the default installation directory.
After removing that, two testers on machines where C: is not the system
drive reported that the installer suggested their system drive instead
of C:, and that's what they wanted it to do.

Try to recover from changes in the structure of the CSV package/module.

Thu, 24 Apr 2003 21:52:16 +0000

Try to recover from changes in the structure of the CSV package/module.

Bump version number to 2.3b1.

Thu, 24 Apr 2003 16:45:34 +0000

Sat, 22 Mar 2003 01:16:05 +0000

Stop creating empty CVS directories in the csv subtree.

Teach the Windows build & installer about the new csv module + DLL.

Fri, 21 Mar 2003 01:55:41 +0000

Teach the Windows build & installer about the new csv module + DLL.

Removed debugging print in test_tarfile.

Wed, 19 Feb 2003 02:41:44 +0000

Removed debugging print in test_tarfile.
In the Windows installer, continued the endless battle to copy over files
with new one-shot extensions.

Bump version # to 2.3a2.

Tue, 18 Feb 2003 21:58:53 +0000

Bump version # to 2.3a2.

CVS patch 669645: wininst.exe missing in Windows installer.
Not anymore it ain't.

There are two more copyright notices in the Windows world:

Thu, 02 Jan 2003 17:09:19 +0000

There are two more copyright notices in the Windows world:

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 !

SF bug 660795: logging missing from Python 2.3a1 for Windows.

Thu, 02 Jan 2003 16:02:27 +0000

SF bug 660795: logging missing from Python 2.3a1 for Windows.
Added the logging package. In the meantime, Neal Norwitz added a
test_logging.py to the std test suite, which would have caught this
oversight in the Windows installer.

Merging in changes from r23a1-branch. Doc/makefile had conflicts, which
I leave to Fred to sort out.

Mon, 16 Dec 2002 20:18:38 +0000

datetime escapes the sandbox. The Windows build is all set. I leave it
to others to argue about how to build it on other platforms (on Windows
it's in its own DLL).

Tue, 10 Dec 2002 19:03:52 +0000

Install the tools/i18n directory on Windows. A user requested it,
Barry agreed, and I see no reason not to.

Wed, 04 Dec 2002 04:00:12 +0000

Added _ssl.lib to the installer too. Restored alphabetical order of
DLL and lib sections.

Tue, 03 Dec 2002 06:02:59 +0000

Add _ssl.pyd to the list of files to be installed by Wise.

Try linking the static Sleepycat lib into _bsddb.pyd. Hard to say

Sat, 23 Nov 2002 18:48:06 +0000

Try linking the static Sleepycat lib into _bsddb.pyd. Hard to say
whether this is a correct thing to do:

+ There are linker warnings (see PCbuild\readme.txt).
+ test_bsddb passes, in both release and debug builds now.
+ test_bsddb3 has several failures, but it did before too.

Also made pythoncore a dependency of the _bsddb project, updated
build instructions, added database conversion XXX to NEWS, and fiddled
the Windows installer accordingly.

More bsddb-on-Windows fiddling:

Sat, 23 Nov 2002 03:49:08 +0000

More bsddb-on-Windows fiddling:
+ News blurb, but as much XXX as news.
+ Updated installer (install the new bsddb package, and the Berkeley DLL;
still don't know how to fold that into _bsddb.pyd).
+ Fleshed out build instructions.
+ Debug Python still blows up.

Renamed Wise vrbl from _TCLMINOR_ to _TCLDIR_, to remove any script

Tue, 19 Nov 2002 17:38:27 +0000

Renamed Wise vrbl from _TCLMINOR_ to _TCLDIR_, to remove any script
dependence on the Tcl/Tk version number. Now you point it at the
Tcl/Tk install you want to ship, and that's what it ships.

Windows changes to move from Tcl/Tk 8.3.2 to 8.4.1. I tested this by

Thu, 14 Nov 2002 23:24:40 +0000

Windows changes to move from Tcl/Tk 8.3.2 to 8.4.1. I tested this by
running IDLE, and since I'm not a Tcl Guy I'm not sure what else to do.
Up to you! See XXX comments in PCbuild\readme.txt for cautions.

Also repaired typos in the new bz2-for-Windows instructions.

Install the bz2 DLL on Windows.

Sat, 09 Nov 2002 08:24:58 +0000

Install the bz2 DLL on Windows.

Tue, 23 Jul 2002 19:56:30 +0000

Taught the Windows installer about changes in the structure of the email
package, and the loss of the test/data directory.

Windows installer: disabled Wise's "delete in-use files" uninstall

Tue, 16 Apr 2002 20:48:01 +0000

Windows installer: disabled Wise's "delete in-use files" uninstall
option. It was the cause of at least one way UNWISE.EXE could vanish
(install a python; uninstall it; install it again; reboot the machine;
abracadabra the uinstaller is gone).

Bugfix candidate, but I'll backport it myself.

SF bug 497854: Short-cuts missing for All Users

Thu, 04 Apr 2002 20:02:04 +0000

SF bug 497854: Short-cuts missing for All Users
Fix Windows-specific install glitch. Tested on Win2K, but I can't test
on XP.
Already checked in to the release22-maint branch.

Wed, 13 Feb 2002 23:56:46 +0000

Finish the pyexpat rework for Windows: builders needn't suck down the
Expat installer from SF anymore, and the installer shouldn't install
expat.dll anymore.
