Tarek Ziadé <ziade.ta...@gmail.com> added the comment: I couldn't reproduce the problem yet, using your sample.
I tried to compile on Mac OSX (Python 2.5 GCC) and Windows XP (Python 2.5 , MinGW 5.1.4 and SWIG 1.2.3) and it worked well. The output was right, (the .o file has a space, but the pyd/so files come out properly), and I could use the gcd() function without any problem. The call to the compiler quotes the c file correctly: ... c:\Program Files\MinGW\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O -Wall -Ic:\Python25\include -Ic:\Python25\PC -c "ex ample.c" -o "build\temp.win32-2.5\Release\ex ample.o" ... This is done automatically with distutils.spawn._nt_quote_args under Windows for instance. And this is basically what your patch is doing. When does it crash exactly for you ? Do you have a traceback ? _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4508> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
