packaging: support building WiX installers with PyOxidizer...
packaging: support building WiX installers with PyOxidizer We initially implemented PyOxidizer support for Inno installers. That did most of the heavy work of integrating PyOxidizer into the packaging system. Implementing WiX installer support was pretty straightforward. Aspects of this patch look very similar to Inno's. The main difference is the handling of the Visual C++ Redistributable Runtime files. The WiX installer was formerly using merge modules to install the VC++ 9.0 runtime because this feature is supported by the WiX installer (it isn't easily available to Inno installers). Our strategy for the runtime files is to install the vcruntime140.dll file next to hg.exe just like any other file. While we could leverage WiX's functionality for invoking a VCRedist installer, I don't want to deal with the complexity at this juncture. So, we let run_pyoxidizer() copy vcruntime140.dll into the staging directory (like it does for Inno) and our dynamic WiX XML generator picks it up as a regular file and installs it. We did, however, have to teach mercurial.wxs how to conditionally use the merge modules. But this was rather straightforward. Comparing the file layout of the WiX installers before and after: * Various lib/*.{pyd, dll} files no longer exist * python27.dll was replaced by python37.dll * vcruntime140.dll was added All these changes are expected due to the transition to Python 3 and to PyOxidizer, which embeded the .pyd and .dll files in hg.exe.

Oxidized Mercurial

This project provides a Rust implementation of the Mercurial (hg)
version control tool.

Under the hood, the project uses
PyOxidizer to embed a Python
interpreter in a binary built with Rust. At run-time, the Rust fn main()
is called and Rust code handles initial process startup. An in-process
Python interpreter is started (if needed) to provide additional
functionality.

Building

This project currently requires an unreleased version of PyOxidizer
(0.7.0-pre). For best results, build the exact PyOxidizer commit
as defined in the pyoxidizer.bzl file:

$ git clone https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer.git
$ cd PyOxidizer
$ git checkout <Git commit from pyoxidizer.bzl>
$ cargo build --release

Then build this Rust project using the built pyoxidizer executable::

$ /path/to/pyoxidizer/target/release/pyoxidizer build

If all goes according to plan, there should be an assembled application
under build/<arch>/debug/app/ with an hg executable:

$ build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/app/hg version
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 5.3.1+433-f99cd77d53dc+20200331)
(see https://mercurial-scm.org for more information)

Running Tests

To run tests with a built hg executable, you can use the --with-hg
argument to run-tests.py. But there's a wrinkle: many tests run custom
Python scripts that need to import modules provided by Mercurial. Since
these modules are embedded in the produced hg executable, a regular
Python interpreter can't access them! To work around this, set PYTHONPATH
to the Mercurial source directory. e.g.:

$ cd /path/to/hg/src/tests
$ PYTHONPATH=`pwd`/.. python3.7 run-tests.py \
    --with-hg `pwd`/../rust/hgcli/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/app/hg
