Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: What effect does this static linking of the VC runtime have on libraries that extension modules link at dynamically ?
E.g. say I have an extension which links against an ODBC driver DLL using a different VC runtime than the one used to build Python. In the past, the has never been an issue, so adding a requirement to rebuild external libraries is pretty much a no-go for Python extension writing. You often have the case where you cannot rebuild the external libraries you want to link against. ---------- nosy: +lemburg _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24872> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
