Diff for "SetuptoolsOnJython"

Differences between revisions 3 and 4

Setuptools requirements:

We don't have:

PEP 273 (the zipimport module)
- - Jython's ZipFileImporter is somewhat different that the CPython zipimport module -- it's not a module, and it does not maintain its own _zip_importer_cache (which setuptools utilizes) apart from sys.path_importer_cache
  - The Jython zipimport machinery is different: ZipFileImporter only imports zips if they're SyspathArchives: currently .zips and .jars. How does CPython zipimport identify .eggs in sys.path as .zips? (needed for the ez_setup bootstrap process)
distutils
- - requires this small patch: http://pylonshq.com/pasties/390 (jython's sys.executable is None)
tempfile.mkstemp
os.open is used for a small hack having to do with usage of tempfile.mkstemp
imp.acquire/release_lock
