tis-pyscripter: “Run Configuration”?

[Jonattend]

Hello,

I've been using WAPT for a while now with satisfaction.

Despite my research, I haven't found the answer in the documentation: in PyScripter, under Run Configurations, what is the difference between "remove" and "uninstall"?

Also, what is the purpose of "update", "upgrade", "svn update", and "update-packages-sources"?

Thank you for your help.

The `remove` function uninstalls the software using the `uninstallkey` key and then executes the `uninstall()` function from `setup.py` to complete the process. The `uninstall()` code that is executed is the one stored in the database at the time of installation.

`uninstall` only executes the `uninstall()` function from `setup.py`. This is a convenience in development mode to avoid having to reinstall the software when debugging the `uninstall()` function.
The code executed (by PyScript) is the one found in the `setup.py` file.

Hello,
thank you for the clarification.

And what about the other options?
- update
- upgrade
- svn update
- update-packages-sources

Thank you

Hello,
Thank you for the clarification

. And what about the other options?

For each of the "Run Configurations", you can right-click and choose "Edit Run Configuration" to see what will be launched.

• update -> launches a wapt-get update (not directly necessary for package editing, it does the same thing as if you launched it from the command line in a cmd.exe)

• upgrade -> launch wapt-(get upgrade (same as above)

• `svn update` -> Historically, packages were versioned in SVN; this command initiates an `svn checkout` if the checkout URL has been configured in the control file

• update-packages-sources -> launches the "def update_package()" function if it is defined in the setup.py file, see https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/CreationPaqu ... index.html

Sincerely,

Denis
