The old installer was a JS script, which didn't work if node had been
cross-compiled for another architecture. Replace it with a python script.
Fixes#3807.
This allows us to run npm's scripts/relocate.sh script whenever
necessary, if for example node has been 'make install'ed into one
folder, and then you wish to move it into another one.
- Fix: it didn't work for the x86 version of node
- Also add NPM to path
- Also print node version
- Don't change dir to home dir if not started from the start menu
This reverts commit f80513974e.
The reverted commit made DESTDIR behave more like we want it to but it was
pointed out in #3489 that it makes life a lot harder for distro package
maintainers.
Those guys and gals already have a hard enough time as it is, let's not make
their jobs even more hellish.
This commit enables ETW events to be fired on Windows for existing
DTrace probes. ETW instrumentation is enabled by default. It
is possible to build node.exe without ETW instrumentation by
using --without-etw option with configure script.
The current WiX project files do some manual processing and generation
which WiX supports doing out of the box. This patch will use the
HeatDirectory task to generate the npm.wxs file and use the auto GUID
generation. I also changed the msi filename generation to include the
version number to match the currently used name for released msi files.
Closes#3360
* Update nodemsi.sln and .wixproj to include support for x64 platform
- Add ProgramFilesFolderId to the DefineConstants property for each
configuration/platform's property group with the appropriate value
(ProgramFilesFolder for x86 builds, ProgramFiles64Folder for x64
builds)
* Update product.wxs:
- update the Id value for the "Program Files" Directory element to
use a preprocessor constant.
- remove hard-coded platform from the Package element. MSI platform
will be automatically detected based on MSBuild's Platform property.
(This was already supported in the Wix MSBuild targets, we just
weren't taking advantage of it.)
* Update vcbuild.bat to set MSBuild's Platform property appropriately,
defaulting to x86 if not explicitly supplied by the user. Note that
creating an x64 build requires that vcbuild.bat be run from a VS
64-bit command prompt.
Closes#3312Closes#3356
For some reason, aa5961a445 caused
'make test' to rebuild the entire project every time. Applying
the fix to the other place where gyp chops up the argument list
makes it behave properly.
* fixes#2110
* includes V8 postmortem metadata in Solaris builds
* adds GYP support for DTrace probes and ustack helper
* ustack helper derives constants dynamically from libv8_base.a
* build with DTrace support by default on SunOS
