very hard to get going on windows

It may be nice to have just the required svn dlls + bzr-svn as (optional) part of the Windows installer.

Jelmer just suggested this in bug 161082 (bzr-svn hard to get going on
windows). I think this is a great idea. Alexander - what do you think?

I think that Lukas Lalinsky chose the right way with QBzr:
he created additional installer compatible with standalone bzr.exe
with required Qt/PyQt libraries *inside*.

I personally don't use neither svn nor bzr-svn so I can't predict
the weight of additional libraries in standalone bzr.exe distribution.
Furthermore, I can't test it in the appropriate way. I several times
look at the bzr-svn description at Bazaar wiki, and I should say
that I'm not completely understand situation with svn bindings and
patch from svn 1.5 (see Requirements section).

But it certainly doable in the QBzr's way.

If we want to ship bzr with batteries included I'd like to fix

In terms of file size, the svn libraries shouldn't be that much of an issue. In terms of maintainance, it's probably a bit harder - involves building subversion from scratch with the patches, and determining which files are needed for bzr-svn.

I think it would be very nice to ship bzr with some of the common
plugins on Windows.

Some people still have not broadband cheap internet, so the size matters.
Currently we have about 4.5MB for bare installer. And for some it's already big size, especially
because we release almost each month. So having separate package for plugins is good way too.

Since mac os leopard contains a python that works with bzr, I've been
thinking of doing an installer that contains bzr, bzr-svn, bzrtools,
rebase and perhaps a few other plugins. So any experience you can give
from doing the same for windows would be helpful.

Reassigning to Kevin Light.

I've made a Win32 installer build of bzr-svn-0.4.5 which includes subversion-1.4.6 python bindings built with the metze and latest memory leak fix patches applied.

You can find it at: http://home.comcast.net/bzr/bzr-svn-0.4.5-svn-1.4.6-setup-0.exe
MD5: dac13be21da5df8081d35c3a23e8f068

The metze patch required a slight modification to expose a missing SWIG export:
http://home.uploads.comcast.net/bzr/subversion-1.4.0-metze-python-bindings.patch

The memory leak patch relative to subversion trunk r28543:r28544:
http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/svn/trunk/subversion/bindings/swig/python/libsvn_swig_py/swigutil_py.c?r1=28543&r2=28544&pathrev=28544

A zip of the subversion 1.4.6 python bindings with the patches applied:
http://home.uploads.comcast.net/bzr/subversion-1.4.6-python-bindings.zip

NOTES:
    The bzr-svn tests (bzr selftest svn) will not run cleanly.

Thanks!

What errors do you get when running the tests? They should in theory all pass on Windows.

Looks like I messed up two of the links in the previous post. Please remove the "uploads" in the home.uploads.comcast.net links.

The metze patch required a slight modification to expose a missing SWIG export:
http://home.comcast.net/bzr/subversion-1.4.0-metze-python-bindings.patch

A zip of the subversion 1.4.6 python bindings with the patches applied:
http://home.comcast.net/bzr/subversion-1.4.6-python-bindings.zip

Also I forgot to mention that the bindings do have DB (version 4.4) and SSL support. The bindings were also built using a Python 2.5 compatible build system (VC2003) meaning that no additional dll's are required.

I have attached the output of the tests on my system. The test results are the same if run from the build or if installed in a python environment.

The Permission denied: xxx error is because Windows is hanging onto something in the svn-cache folders after the test has completed. shutil.rmtree called from the teardown function is failing causing the exception to be thrown. I'm trying to figure out how to get the test to "let go" of the files when it's done.

Thanks for posting that.

A couple of the errors appear to be related to the fact that there is no
executable bit on Windows. That should be fixable. Both Bazaar and
Subversion cache the executable bit if it is not supported by the
system.

There are apparently also some tests related to symlinks failing. I
wonder what we should do there. We could just skip them because it is
impossible to create symlinks on Windows...

There are some tests failing because apparently the pre-revprop-change
hook doesn't appear to be invoked at the moment. This should be fixable
by providing a Windows-specific hook inside the testcase setup code.

I'll see how much of those I can fix.

Cheers,

Jelmer

Hi Kevin,

The links to the Subversion bindings zip file and the updated patch you
posted appear to have gone away. I get a 404 when I go to them. Any
chance you can upload them again? I could probably mirror them if you
don't have the space available.

Cheers,

Jelmer

Sorry for the delay,

The installer: http://home.comcast.net/~klight/bzr/bzr-svn-0.4.6-svn-1.4.6-setup-0.exe

I've thrown an index in the folder to help to keep the files visible:

Thanks! I've updated the link on the wiki to point at this URL.

I'll keep this bug report open until we've fixed the testsuite to run
on Windows.

I've fixed most of the test failures on Windows.

The subversion python bindings seem to have disappeared. The link on the wiki (http://d5190871.u44.websitesource.net/bzr/) is ok, but the bindings (http://d5190871.u44.websitesource.net/bzr/subversion-1.4.6-python-bindings.zip) returns a 404. Could we get the files attached to the wiki page? (or at least somewhere a bit more reliable?)

The missing file has been restored. The bzr-svn-0.4.7 release for Win32 can also be found at http://d5190871.u44.websitesource.net/bzr/ .

I'm inclined to mark this as fix released now that people can use Kevin's installers.
