errors: catch urllib errors specifically instead of using safehasattr()...
errors: catch urllib errors specifically instead of using safehasattr() Before this patch, we would catch `IOError` and `OSError` and check if the instance had a `.code` member (indicates `HTTPError`) or a `.reason` member (indicates the more generic `URLError`). It seems to me that can simply catch those exception specifically instead, so that's what this code does. The existing code is from fbe8834923c5 (commands: report http exceptions nicely, 2005-06-17), so I suspect it's just that there was no `urllib2` (where `URLError` lives) back then. The old code mentioned `SSLError` in a comment. The new code does *not* try to catch that. The documentation for `ssl.SSLError` says that it has a `.reason` property, but `python -c 'import ssl; print(dir(ssl.SSLError("foo", Exception("bar"))))` doesn't mention that property on either Python 2 or Python 3 on my system. It also seems that `sslutil` is pretty careful about converting `ssl.SSLError` to `error.Abort`. It also is carefult to not assume that instances of the exception have a `.reason`. So I at least don't want to catch `ssl.SSLError` and handle it the same way as `URLError` because that would likely result in a crash. I also wonder if we don't need to handle it at all (because `sslutil` might handle all the cases). It's now early in the release cycle, so perhaps we can just see how it goes?

Requirements

Building the Inno installer requires a Windows machine.

The following system dependencies must be installed:

Building

The packaging.py script automates the process of producing an Inno installer. It manages fetching and configuring the non-system dependencies (such as py2exe, gettext, and various Python packages).

The script requires an activated Visual C++ 2008 command prompt. A shortcut to such a prompt was installed with Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7. From your Start Menu, look for Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler Package for Python 2.7 then launch either Visual C++ 2008 32-bit Command Prompt or Visual C++ 2008 64-bit Command Prompt.

From the prompt, change to the Mercurial source directory. e.g. cd c:\src\hg.

Next, invoke packaging.py to produce an Inno installer. You will need to supply the path to the Python interpreter to use.:

$ python3.exe contrib\packaging\packaging.py \
    inno --python c:\python27\python.exe

Note

The script validates that the Visual C++ environment is active and that the architecture of the specified Python interpreter matches the Visual C++ environment and errors if not.

If everything runs as intended, dependencies will be fetched and configured into the build sub-directory, Mercurial will be built, and an installer placed in the dist sub-directory. The final line of output should print the name of the generated installer.

Additional options may be configured. Run packaging.py inno --help to see a list of program flags.

MinGW

It is theoretically possible to generate an installer that uses MinGW. This isn't well tested and packaging.py and may properly support it. See old versions of this file in version control for potentially useful hints as to how to achieve this.
