New submission from Steve Barnes: Currently you can use, assuming all are installed:
py -2 # gets the latest python 2 with 64 bit as the default py -2.7 # gets python 2.7 with 64 bit as the default py -2.7-32 # gets -32 bit python 2.7 py -3 # gets the latest python 3 with 64 bit as the default py -3.5 # gets python 3.5 with 64 bit as the default py -3.5-32 # gets -32 bit python 3.5 But you cannot use: py -2-32 # Usage Error but would be handy for the latest 32 bit python 2 py -3-32 # Usage Error but would be handy for the latest 32 bit python 3 Note that you also cannot use: py -3.5-64 # Unknown option: -3 would be handy for testing with I need 64 bit python 3.5 with an error if it doesn't exist currently -3.5 defaults to 3.5 64 bit if available 32 bit otherwise. For testing packages and programs it would be very useful to be able to specify any of: - Latest available 32 bit python 2 or 3 - 64 bit python 3 fail if unavailable. ---------- messages: 293153 nosy: Steve Barnes priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Allow windows launcher to specify bit lengths with & without minor version type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30291> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
