Purpose
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
This is a sample project that demonstrates running interactive Python-on-a-chp on the
|
|
Windows desktop. This differs from the POSIX version in platform 'desktop' (which is also
|
|
used for cygwin builds).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building the Project
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
The windows files are now checked directly into the Python-on-a-chip subversion trunk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Visual C++ 2008 or 2010 Express Edition
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- I used a simple .bat file to generate the needed _img.c and _nat.c files. This is py2c.bat. Run this
|
|
before loading or building via the solution file.
|
|
|
|
This is now included as a Pre-Build step in the VS solution files, so running the .bat file is not needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Start Visual C++ 2008 or 2010 Express Edition IDE. Open the src\platform\windows\pymiteVS2008.sln or src\platform\windows\pymiteVS2010.sln file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Build. If successful, go to the next step. If not, send a message to the Python-on-a-chip Google
|
|
Groups mailing list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- In src\tools\ipm.py, change the PMVM_EXE line to this:
|
|
|
|
PMVM_EXE = "../platform/windows/main.exe"
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Open a command prompt, cd to <python-on-a-chip>\src\tools, and perform the execute the following command:
|
|
|
|
python ipm.py --desktop
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Go back to Visual Studio, and select Debug. This will attach to the main.exe that was executed in the
|
|
step above. You can set breakpoints, watch variables, etc..
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SCons
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
- Open a regular command prop or "Visual Studio <version> Command Prompt". The VS Command Prompt
|
|
is located under the Tools section in the start menu. Recent versions (check which ones!) of
|
|
scons should detect the proper PATH, INCLUDE and LIB values from the Registry.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- 'cd' to the root of the pymite directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Type 'scons PLATFORM=windows' at the prompt and press <Enter>. Everything should build, and a
|
|
main.exe created in the src\platform\windows directory
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alternative, if you want to build directly from the platform/windows directory, you can use 'scons
|
|
PLATFORM=windows -u' to build. This will search up the directory tree for the 'master' SConstruct file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cd to the src/tools directory. In the ipm.py file, you will need to change the PMVM_EXE value to:
|
|
|
|
PMVM_EXE = "../platform/windows/main.exe"
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Now simply type 'python ipm.py -f ../platform/windows/pmfeatures.py --desktop' and <Enter> and you should be able to do all the standard
|
|
PyMite things.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
- Note there is no make or nmake Makefile to build. You can use msbuild to build the Visual Studio
|
|
Project directly instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
TODO
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
- Instead of the py2c.bat file, use a custom build step in the Visual Studio IDE. DONE
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Get the VS Solution and SCons x64 builds working. That is, build native x64 versions of PyMite.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add some simple Windows-specific extensions to test from within ipm.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version History
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
- Added a local windows stdint.h. This allows us to use the core vm source code
|
|
as-is for the Windows build. This could have issues if you try to build with MinGW
|
|
or other compiler set. Also, will likely break in VS2010, since they should be including
|
|
a stdint.h.
|
|
|
|
- I used the new pm_features.h to add the needed defines for snprintf. The __DEBUG__ to _DEBUG
|
|
should also be there too.
|
|
|
|
- Found the magic TARGET_ARCH flag to scons that cleans up the windows SConscipt file quite a bit. This
|
|
fixes the issues I was having trying to build the x86 version on an x64 host, without having the x64
|
|
tools installed. (The scons folks marked this bug as-is [scons versions 2.0 and above fixed this I believe).
