The VS2015 runtime DLLs are currently not included in the Seamonkey Windows packages for installation and update.
Attached patch 1286286-VS2015-Runtime.patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Patch for copying the runtime dlls. I changed XP_WIN32 to XP_WIN. Both are set when doing x86 and x64 builds but I find the 32 confusing with x64 builds.

I encountered a strange error during mozmake installer. 
mozilla\python\mozbuild\mozpack\files.py whould give me a Windows Error access denied 5 on line 277 os.remove(dest). Probably has something to do with my path settings and will not affect offcial builds but I would be glad if someone else could try the patch. I just removed the line to get it going resulting in temp files not removed. 

The resulting installer worked fine when I removed the runtime from the system so the copy steps are ok.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

generally, it looks good.

I'm not entirely comfortable about the XP_WIN32 -> XP_WIN even though they refer to the same thing.  Mainly due
to XP_WIN32 being sprinkled all over the codebase.

I'm wondering if it's better if we just move everything to XP_WIN?

>> I'm wondering if it's better if we just move everything to XP_WIN?

I could do a separate patch for this if desired. I only found a few references in the suite directory. The majority is XP_WIN and I think this should be used. If you check with dxr out of 2100 occurences in c-c m-c only 103 are XP_WIN32.
Mike,

you are more familar with Windows development. While switching suite installer files to VS2015 I noticed that there are two defs for Windows. I think checking for XP_WIN32 should be phased out. Any insights into this?
Flags: needinfo?(mh+mozilla)
I shuffled the ifdefs around. I think it makes no sense to have only the vc runtime without the ucrtlibs in the package and vice versa. 

I also found a solution for the access denied error. The vc runtime files I tried to include where read only. The python zipper did copy them as temporary files and left the attributes intact. os.remove did then choke. Just removing the attribute cleared the error condition. 

Maybe a bug against files.py should be raised? A possible solution would be to set the filemode before remove with os.chmod(dest, 0777).

Compared to Firefox's version, the WIN_UCRT additions are done after the WIN32_REDIST_DIR endif. The minimum would be to move the ifdef to the end of the MSVC defines.

f- for the moment

Yes that is how I did version 1 of the patch. But it's wrong for VS2015. You end up with a non working Seamonkey if one of the two components is not installed/provided. This is the case with the current broken builds which have no ucrt but did pull in the msvc runtime.  They need to be both there. VS2013 didn't have the ucrt so it didn't apply there and at the time they put the patch in m-c VS2013 was also still used so the patch needed a distinction for the ucrt and the libs. For VS2013 builds ucrt was simply left out. Now with VS2015 only we no longer need this.

Or we error out if one of the two is not provided and it's a VS2015+ build.

Interesting, so is that a bug for Firefox?

No. They needed it at the time to still do VS2013 builds with the same package-manifest.in. ewong wants to do 2.45 with VS2015 and 2.44 is still VS2013 only for now so we do not need this.

c-c is currently broken. I will ask for c-a and c-b branch approval after a successful build with the patch.

ewong. The latest Windows beta from https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-beta/ does not contain the VS2015 runtime files. Could you check the build environment.
Flags: needinfo?(ewong)
default mozconfig in top builddir still points to vs2013 in beta. This or our build configs needs to change:

. $topsrcdir/build/win32/mozconfig.vs2013-win64

As an alternative we could also use version 1 of the patch which takes builds with VS2013 into account. Reopened for now to track this.

Why isn't TB busted?  Shouldn't they too use vs2015-win64?
Flags: needinfo?(ewong)
It looks like they still do VS2013 only builds. If we want only VS2015 we can change our Windows mozconfigs to explicitly include mozconfig.vs2015-win64 which is what the common file on c-a and up just now does. 

Firefox 48 will be VS2013 based. Future releases will use VS2015 so no point changing c-a or c-c.
