setup: build extensions in parallel by default...
setup: build extensions in parallel by default The build_ext distutils command in Python 3.5+ has a "parallel" option that controls whether to build extensions in parallel. It is disabled by default (None) and can be set to an integer value for number of cores or True to indicate use all available CPU cores. This commit changes our build_ext command override to set "parallel" to True unless a value has been provided by the caller. On my machine, this makes `python setup.py build_ext` 1-4s faster. It is worth noting that at this time, each individual source file constituting the extension is still built serially. For Mercurial, this means that we can't build faster than the slowest-to-build extension, which is the zstd extension by a long shot. This means that setup.py is still not very efficient at utilizing multiple cores. But we're better than before.

Requirements

Building the Inno installer requires a Windows machine.

The following system dependencies must be installed:

Building

The build.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 build.py to produce an Inno installer. You will need to supply the path to the Python interpreter to use.:

$ python3.exe contrib\packaging\inno\build.py \
    --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 build.py --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 build.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.
