I get this linker error LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'python26_d.lib' when I build the debug version of my Visual Studio project.
This is caused by the following lines in the file c:\Python26\include \pyconfig.h # ifdef _DEBUG # pragma comment(lib,"python26_d.lib") # else # pragma comment(lib,"python26.lib") # endif /* _DEBUG */ The file python26_d.lib is not installed by the Python installer on Windows. So please: 1. Provide python26_d.lib in the installer. or 2. Remove this automatic "pragma comment lib" from pyconfig.h, since I can't disable it from the outside (as far as I know). Please note: I want to build my own code in Debug mode for debugging. I don't want to build or use the debug version of Python. I also can't #undef _DEBUG, since the file that includes pyconfig.h (via Python.h) is generated by SWIG. Also I prefer not to change pyconfig.h myself, since my code needs to compile on a lot of different machines. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
