Re: [Jython-dev] Non-release builds with pip 7.1.2

[Jeff A. <ja...@fa...>]

Hi Guillermo:

When there is a release candidate a link is posted to this list, but 
there isn't one at present (contrary to earlier plans).

It's not too onerous to build Jython from the sources here: 
https://hg.python.org/jython/ . You need ant, and I mostly build with 
Java 7 to preserve the backward compatibility. But you can manage 
without mercurial (I'm pretty sure) by downloading the zip/gz. The 
default ant target is a developer build (about 2 minutes). This produces 
lots of warnings the first time through (grammar warnings and some 
deprecation warnings). That's normal :(

Then you can run it directly as:
$ dist/bin/jython

For added reassurance, run:
$ dist/bin/jython -m test.regrtest -e
This runs the Python regression tests, plus a few Jython ones, minus a 
few tests known to fail (that's what -e means). It takes around 30 
minutes on my machine.
