Category: Build Group: Platform-specific >Status: Closed >Resolution: Rejected Priority: 5 Submitted By: beaudrym (beaudrym) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: msvccompiler.py modified to work with .NET 2005 on win64 Initial Comment: Hi, I tried to compile and install pywin32 (python extension) using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2005. This was done on a AMD64 platform which had Python 2.4.2.10 installed (from www.activestate.com). When I try to compile pywin32, it uses the file msvccompiler.py that comes with python. For the compilation to work, I had to modify msvccompiler.py. I attached a patch file of my modifications. Basically, I had to modify two things: 1 - use .NET framework 2.0 when 1.1 is not found. 2 - use environment variables "path", "lib" and "included" already defined in console when compiling with Visual Studio 8.0. See comments in patch file for more details. Let me know if these patches look reasonable to you.

If it ever is, it is likely that your patch will be incorrect: I'm currently planning to use the Platform SDK compiler for AMD64 binaries, instead of VS2005. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1425482&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
