[issue12267] Difficult to compile python in Visual Studio 2010 express

2011-06-05 Thread Tom Whittock

New submission from Tom Whittock :

The automatic upgrade process included with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 
express is unable to deal with the project files in the python PC folder, due 
to it not supporting the x64 target. I had to manually edit the project files 
to remove all references to x64 before being able to upgrade the project. 
Included is a mercurial patch against the 2.7 line which adds project files for 
the 2010 express edition.

[issue12267] Difficult to compile python in Visual Studio 2010 express

2011-06-05 Thread Tom Whittock

Tom Whittock  added the comment:

Fair enough. The reason I added it is because that's the most easily available 
free compiler for Windows machines at the moment, and due to the lack of x64 
support it's not easy to start compiling python with it. It's quite awkward to 
get earlier express editions, and of course it costs money to get the pro 
edititons which would do the automatic upgrade with no trouble.

I could make you a 3.x patch for the same thing if you like? I happen to be 
using 2.7 at work so I just did what I needed.

Tom Whittock  added the comment:

Wouldn't a full (I assume you mean pro/team edition) 2010 version will include 
the x64 stuff which will make the express edition unable to load it?

Tom Whittock  added the comment:

Ah, in that case it seems my patch isn't particularly useful then. I'd 
personally like to see Brian Curtins patch applied sooner rather than later, 
however - 2010 support is very important to me.

I'll be running that locally for the meantime, and I guess others could apply 
my patch if they find themselves in my situation also in the meantime.

I had no idea about the x64 support in express - useful info, thanks for that.
