I'm trying to get this basic sample to work: http://docs.python.org/ext/dnt-basics.html
When I get to the last step: $ python setup.py build I get this error: error: Python was build with Visual Studio version 8.0 and extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but it isn't installed. This is bogus, as I do have VS8 installed. I used it to compile the python stuff actually. Is there anyway to get this to work without using the distutils; i.e. just compiling it myself? Thank you -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
