Sorry, I should have said the mingw32 compiler, which is contained in cygwincompiler.py The mingw32 compiler is a free compiler compatible with MSVC. Since it's used with the Windows version of python, there is no configure script. I noticed this when trying to build an extension module with "python setup.py build -c mingw32", using the Windows (not cygwin) version of python. The extension module failed to compile because had a line like this: assert(my_struct->debug_only_field); where "debug_only_field" is only declared if Py_DEBUG is set. When NDEBUG is set, the assert disappears and the compile works as expected. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7182> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
