Category: Build Group: Python 2.5 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Ulrich Hockenbrink (uhocke) Assigned to: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Summary: Bulding source with VC6 fails due to missing files Initial Comment: I just downloaded the source for the 2.5 python library and tried to compile it under VC6.0. The build process stops because there are three files, that cannot be found: exceptions.c md5c.c structmodule.c ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2006-10-24 00:15 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 It wasn't supported in Python 2.5.0. The files were still there, but known to be non-functional. Since that release, patches have been contributed to reportedly make it work again. It's still not supported anymore, i.e. it's not a release-critical bug if that build process breaks, and reports that it broke will likely be closed as "won't fix". In any case, as patches have been contributed, I'm closing this as "fixed" now - I can't actually test whether it works, though, because I don't have VC6 anymore. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ulrich Hockenbrink (uhocke) Date: 2006-10-23 16:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1627884 Yes it is. Under \Python-2.5\PC\VC6 you can find a Visual Studio 6.0 workspace file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2006-10-23 16:37 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 Is building 2.5 with VC 6 still supported at all? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ulrich Hockenbrink (uhocke) Date: 2006-10-23 15:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1627884 For the files exceptions.c and md5c.c it just seems to be a problem with the workspace file since those files exist in the source tree, but in different directories as expected. For the exceptions.c, the VC workspace expects it under ".\Python-2.5\Python" but it is in ".\Python-2.5\Modules". For the md5c.c, there is a file called md5.c under ".\Python-2.5\Modules", which could be the needed file. For structmodule.c, this file cannot be found at all, though. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ulrich Hockenbrink (uhocke) Date: 2006-10-23 15:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1627884 For the files exceptions.c and md5c.c it just seems to be a problem with the workspace file since those files exist in the source tree, but in different directories as expected.
