[issue2975] VS8 include dirs grow without bound
Jim Kleckner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Talk about tunnel vision... The code is right next to it! It is the include paths that are growing without bound (and presumably the LIBPATH as well). The test case is the Cython unit tests. They run until the include variable generates a "line too long" error. The normalize_and_reduce_paths() function needs to be performed on INCLUDE and LIBPATH in addition to the exec path. i.e. os.environ['lib'] and os.environ['include']. ___ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2975> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue2975] VS8 include dirs grow without bound
Jim Kleckner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: In this file: http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/distutils/msvc9compiler.py?rev=62636&view=auto Notice the line containing: os.environ['include'] = vc_env['include'] This causes the process environment variables to acquire the value returned by vcvars.bat. Since vcvars.bat appends it's values to the environment variable, it grows each time called. Note that the submitted patch does make this problem go away. A better patch could combine the two functions or and treat them consistently. ___ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2975> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Jim Kleckner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Actually, now that I think about it a little more, it seems like "very bad practice" to change the process environment variables as a side effect. A better solution would be to keep a variable for the required ones that is modified as necessary. ___ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2975> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Sorry, posted too quickly.
Actually, the problem was a little different.
There was an environment variable with '=' characters in it.
Here is a patch to deal with that:

[issue2256] Install failure of 2.6a1 on Windows XP without VS8 installed
New submission from Jim Kleckner:
When I install 2.6a1 onto a Windoze machine I get a dialog:
There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.
A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected.
Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
Note that it didn't have VS2008 or any other new code installed.
The problem appears related to Tkinter but that isn't clear.
When running the Python console, running
import Tkinter
results in an error saying that _tkinter can't be loaded.
DLL load failed. The system can't find _tkinter.pyd
_tkinter.pyd and tcl84.dll and tk84.dll are in DLLs and
appear to have reasonable permissions.
I suspect something in the install failed to set something
in the registry.
This is on a current-patch XP
system and that I also tried python-2.6.13944.msi
from the buildbot just in case after uninstalling/reinstalling
with no difference.
Attached is a compressed log of the install.
Perhaps this "PROPERTY CHANGE: Deleting SECONDSEQUENCE"
is the problem?

Jim Kleckner added the comment: I uninstalled and re-ran the install without the "compile all" selected. The install didn't report errors. running: python -c "import test.testall" results in a traceback with the message: import _socket ImportError: DLL load failed: The system could not find the file specified.
