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: Build Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Vincent Manis (vmanis) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: There should be a Python build using Visual Studio 2005 Initial Comment: This report is a follow-on from Bug# 1498051, which complained that Distutils doesn't recognize Visual Studio 2005. That bug was closed with a statement that extensions should be built with the same version of the MS compiler that built the Python system. Given that Visual Studio 2003 is no longer available as a commercial product from Microsoft, many people (myself included) must use Visual Studio 2005. Therefore, I am requesting that a separate `batteries included' Windows installer be provided where everything has been built with VS2005. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Dobes V (dobesv) Date: 2006-12-18 04:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=400635 Originator: NO You don't have to provide several different builds - only the 2005 build is needed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2006-06-13 17:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Recategorizing as a feature request. I'm personally not willing to produce several different x86 windows packages. However, sources are available, so if somebody things this should be provided, they are certainly free to provide it themselves. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=1504947&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
