Hi,

how can I build python modules on windows? I tried to build numarray[0] 
using Microsoft Visual C++ 2003 Toolkit, but got the following error:

---
error: Python was built with version 7.1 of Visual Studio, and 
extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but 
it isn't installed.
---

So do I need to buy Visual Studio 7.1 to be able to build python modules 
on windows? That would explain why there are so few binary packages 
available. If this is true, has the python community considerred 
switching to compile the standard python distribution using the freely 
available compiler from Microsoft?

Thanks in advance for any hints!

Markus


[0]: I do not need to install numarray, but find a decent way to package 
and build self-made extensions and use numarray here as an example
