Andre Heider <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: I tried to use _CRT_NOFORCE_MANIFEST but i couldn't get it working. There're some infos about this approach at http://blog.m-ri.de/index.php/2008/05/06/hotfix-fuer-usemsprivateassembliesh-und-vc-2008/ , but even with the mentioned "__declspec(selectany) int _forceCRTManifest[RTM];" statement, i wasn't able to suppress the manifest dependency :(
Microsoft, in its infinite wisdom, decided to compile the CRT itself with those #pragma's enabled. That puts the "/manifestdependency" linker arguments in msvcrt.lib. When you link against that file you get that CRT manifest entry, whether you like it or not :( Looks like _CRT_NOFORCE_MANIFEST only works if you build your own CRT without the #pragma's. Of course that only applies to the dynamic version of the CRT, when using /MT the manifest hell just vanishes. I'm unsure what the best way to fix this issue for python is... _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4120> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
