Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Distutils Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jimmy Retzlaff (jretz) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: msvccompiler.py using VC6 with Python 2.5a2 Initial Comment: The change in revision 42515 checks if MSSdk is defined, and if so it will "Assume that the SDK set up everything alright." The problem is that the SDK may be set up for a different version of cl.exe than is expected. In my case I have VC6 and VC7.1 installed and the SDK is set up for VC6. When building extensions for Python 2.5a2, distutils tries to use VC6 in my case. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2006-06-24 12:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I don't understand the problem. MSSdk gets defined by opening a specific SDK build environment. Just don't open that build environment, but open a regular cmd.exe window, and it should work fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1508010&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
