from NSIS installer, instead of via explorer.exe.
A recent test run performed the install, then opened an Explorer window on My
Documents. <eyeroll/>
|
|
This should eliminate any confusion due to a Standard user needing to elevate
to Admin privileges, since from that point on Windows tells the running
program the current user is that Admin. Bypass all that.

run the viewer from the installer.
Turns out that the peculiar indirection through explorer.exe was a known trick
for an elevated-privileges program to launch a program as the logged-in
Windows user. (They could have commented that...)
But explorer.exe doesn't pass command-line parameters, so if you want to pass
any such to the actual target program, you have to launch a shortcut with
those parameters.
But this target program (the updater) and its parameters (precheck mumble) are
specific to the very first viewer run after installation, so delete it after.
Having an additional permanent icon that always runs the updater before the
viewer would only confuse matters.

But change shortcuts and registry entries and everything else back to the real
viewer executable, so that every subsequent run directly launches the viewer.
Eliminate SL_Launcher references from viewer_manifest.py.
|

|
|
Specifically, when the viewer is run with a URL target argument, suppress the
"do not directly execute viewer, use the launcher instead" warning.

Specifically, the installer has been hitting
http://install.secondlife.com/check/
In most situations, the installer is run right after the user finishes
downloading it. If s/he can successfully download a big executable, we should
be able to use that network connection.
More to the point, *nothing is done* with the connect result. It serves only
to slow down the viewer installer.
|
|
The /marker switch is passed by the (new) VMP. If any user wants to explicitly
pass the /marker switch to the installer, s/he shouldn't mind ending up with
an nsis.winstall file in the download directory.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
This reduces a timing hole in which one instance of SL_Launcher might place
a .winstall marker file in the download directory and run the downloaded
installer, but another SL_Launcher instance might discover that marker and try
to delete the directory before the NSIS install completes.

Specifically, append (32) or (64) to the four-part version number stored in
the registry entry used to detect whether this viewer has already been
installed. This is injected as a new VERSION_REGISTRY NSIS variable.
(It was tempting to simply change the value of VERSION_LONG with the embedded
address size. However, there is one other use of VERSION_LONG in the NSIS
template. That use is the subject of MAINT-7533.)
Synthesize the VERSION_REGISTRY value in viewer_manifest.py and add it to the
substitution dict used to populate the NSIS template.
ADDRESS_SIZE isn't passed into viewer_manifest.py, but it can be inferred from
the existing 'arch' parameter: 'arch' as well as 'platform' is used to select
the specific subclass of the ViewerManifest class to instantiate for this run.
Add an appropriate address_size attribute to every such subclass.
Change a couple existing tests on 'arch' to tests on self.address_size instead
-- clearer to the maintainer.
Also, given that subclass selection mechanism, the ViewerManifest base class
shouldn't need if / elif tests on 'platform'. Make build_data_json_platform a
class attribute as well, removing the base-class stanza that dynamically
examines 'platform' and 'arch'.
Similarly, move platform-specific tweaks to the build_data_dict used to
populate build_data.json into a new finish_build_data_dict() method overridden
by individual platform subclasses.
Encapsulate the logic around running the Windows code-signing tool into a
sign() method, and call it as needed. For obtaining environment variables with
fallback values, use os.environ.get() instead of os.path.expandvars() with
tests on the returned value.
