Tarek Ziadé <ziade.ta...@gmail.com> added the comment: distutils will use the same compiler used to build Python.
If you want to build with a previous version of MSVC, you need to compile Python with that particular version. That said, MSVCCompiler could probably take new options, to force the MSVC version and the arch. This is in theory. Are you willing to help me build that patch ? Some tests on your system would be appreciated. ---------- priority: -> normal type: -> feature request versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.1 -Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5235> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
