vcbuild.bat is calling vcvars.bat, which doesn't detect if the environment
has already been set. This causes repeated entries to be added to the PATH,
which after a few invocations will lead to an error:
The input line is too long.
The two main goals of this change are:
- To make it easier to build the Intl option using ICU (particularly,
using a newer ICU than v8/Chromium's version)
- To enable a much smaller ICU build with only English support The goal
here is to get node.js binaries built this way by default so that the
Intl API can be used. Additional data can be added at execution time
(see Readme and wiki)
More details are at https://github.com/joyent/node/pull/7719
In particular, this change adds the "--with-intl=" configure option to
provide more ways of building "Intl":
- "full-icu" picks up an ICU from deps/icu
- "small-icu" is similar, but builds only English
- "system-icu" uses pkg-config to find an installed ICU
- "none" does nothing (no Intl)
For Windows builds, the "full-icu" or "small-icu" options are added to
vcbuild.bat.
Note that the existing "--with-icu-path" option is not removed from
configure, but may not be used alongside the new option.
Wiki changes have already been made on
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installation
and a new page created at
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Intl
(marked as provisional until this change lands.)
Summary of changes:
* README.md : doc updates
* .gitignore : added "deps/icu" as this is the location where ICU is
unpacked to.
* Makefile : added the tools/icu/* files to cpplint, but excluded a
problematic file.
* configure : added the "--with-intl" option mentioned above.
Calculate at config time the list of ICU source files to use and data
packaging options.
* node.gyp : add the new files src/node_i18n.cc/.h as well as ICU
linkage.
* src/node.cc : add call into
node::i18n::InitializeICUDirectory(icu_data_dir) as well as new
--icu-data-dir option and NODE_ICU_DATA env variable to configure ICU
data loading. This loading is only relevant in the "small"
configuration.
* src/node_i18n.cc : new source file for the above Initialize..
function, to setup ICU as needed.
* tools/icu : new directory with some tools needed for this build.
* tools/icu/icu-generic.gyp : new .gyp file that builds ICU in some new
ways, both on unix/mac and windows.
* tools/icu/icu-system.gyp : new .gyp file to build node against a
pkg-config detected ICU.
* tools/icu/icu_small.json : new config file for the "English-only" small
build.
* tools/icu/icutrim.py : new tool for trimming down ICU data. Reads the
above .json file.
* tools/icu/iculslocs.cc : new tool for repairing ICU data manifests
after trim operation.
* tools/icu/no-op.cc : dummy file to force .gyp into using a C++ linker.
* vcbuild.bat : added small-icu and full-icu options, to call into
configure.
* Fixed toolset dependencies, see
https://github.com/joyent/node/pull/7719#issuecomment-54641687
Note that because of a bug in gyp {CC,CXX}_host must also be set.
Otherwise gcc/g++ will be used by default for part of the build.

Previously the build artifacts did not include a signed timestamp, so
when the certificate expired the validation of the artifact would fail.
Now we sign against a timestamp server such that the artifact will
always be valid regardless of the disposition of the certificate.
Closes#7360 and #7059.
Change vcbuild.bat to ignore VCINSTALLDIR environment variable,
always check for specific VS version and set GYP_MSVS_VERSION
accordingly. Otherwise GYP generates project files in format
that cannot be compiled by VS2012.
We were using a global temp file while setting the NODE_VERSION
environment variable. This resulted in simultaneous builds swapping
version numbers on occasion.
This patch removes the use of a temp file for this.
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.
