/* Setuptools Script Launcher for Windows This is a stub executable for Windows that functions somewhat like Effbot's "exemaker", in that it runs a script with the same name but a .py extension, using information from a #! line. It differs in that it spawns the actual Python executable, rather than attempting to hook into the Python DLL. This means that the script will run with sys.executable set to the Python executable, where exemaker ends up with sys.executable pointing to itself. (Which means it won't work if you try to run another Python process using sys.executable.) To build/rebuild with mingw32, do this in the setuptools project directory: gcc -DGUI=0 -mno-cygwin -O -s -o setuptools/cli.exe launcher.c gcc -DGUI=1 -mwindows -mno-cygwin -O -s -o setuptools/gui.exe launcher.c It links to msvcrt.dll, but this shouldn't be a problem since it doesn't actually run Python in the same process. Note that using 'exec' instead of 'spawn' doesn't work, because on Windows this leads to the Python executable running in the *background*, attached to the same console window, meaning you get a command prompt back *before* Python even finishes starting. So, we have to use spawnv() and wait for Python to exit before continuing. :( */ #include #include #include #include #include "windows.h" int fail(char *format, char *data) { /* Print error message to stderr and return 1 */ fprintf(stderr, format, data); return 2; } char *quoted(char *data) { int i, l = strlen(data), nb; /* We allocate twice as much space as needed to deal with worse-case of having to escape everything. */ char *result = calloc(l*2+3, sizeof(char)); char *presult = result; *presult++ = '"'; for (nb=0, i=0; i < l; i++) { if (data[i] == '\\') nb += 1; else if (data[i] == '"') { for (; nb > 0; nb--) *presult++ = '\\'; *presult++ = '\\'; } else nb = 0; *presult++ = data[i]; } for (; nb > 0; nb--) /* Deal w trailing slashes */ *presult++ = '\\'; *presult++ = '"'; *presult++ = 0; return result; } char *getpyopt(char *python) { /* Search a Python command string, read from a #! line for an option.
