Category: Distutils and setup.py Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Mark Hammond (mhammond) Assigned to: Mark Hammond (mhammond) Summary: distutils.util.get_platform() return value on 64bit Windows Initial Comment: As discussed recently on distutils-sig (http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2007-July/007877.html), it is desirable for get_platform() to return different values for different Windows architectures, to easily differentiate the files and directories created. This patch arranges for either 'win-x86_64' or 'win-ia64' to be returned for the 2 64bit Windows platforms; all other platforms, including 32bit windows, are unchanged. Patch also includes a change to bdist_msi so get_platform() is used instead of 'win32' to create the final .msi. Note that get_platform() *is* already used for the name of the 'build' directories, so this hard-coding of win32 doesn't appear intentional. No similar patch exists for bdist_wininst, as there is no intention to support x64 with bdist_wininst. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Mark Hammond (mhammond) Date: 2007-08-21 11:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=14198 Originator: YES pilot error caused this to require 2 checkins: util.py, revision 57229. command\bdist_msi.py, 57230. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1761786&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
