I would be surprised if anything broke in > dia.pyd if you advanced to 2.4 or even 2.5. ... and I am not suprised but instead *know* there are problems with Python 2.4 and 2.5 almost certainly caused by the C-runtime mix. Not at compile time but at runtime. I've just tested with python25 and the problem is (as expected) still there. But even when building python25 with vc6 there are problems. Like the one mentioned in the Porting to Python 2.5 guide: mixing allocators for PyObject_* and PyMem_*() does not work anymore, see http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/section-other.html [...] > The reason I like Dia is that it promises (via the Python plugin) to let > me convert UML diagrams into Python source.
