[Barry Scott, reports several weird problems trying to build 1.5.2c1 under
|
|
VC 6 on NT]
|
|
|
|
Barry, you didn't say how you *started* your build, but I suspect you
|
|
followed the instructions in PC\readme.txt without reading the first
|
|
paragraph:
|
|
|
|
(NOTE: the project files for MS VC++ 5.x are now in the PCbuild
|
|
directory. See the file readme.txt there for instructions.)
|
|
|
|
If so, throw out everything you did, and start over in the PCbuild
|
|
directory, where a full-blown .dsw file awaits your building pleasure.
|
|
|
|
Had no problems building either release or debug Pythons starting from
|
|
there, under Win95 using VC 5. I doubt VC 6 or NT have anything to do with
|
|
what you're seeing, since e.g. the reopmodule.c you report a complaint about
|
|
is mentioned only in the PC directory, not in the (correct) PCbuild
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
Note: I did not attempt to build _tkinter.

PS to Guido: A fellow at work tripped over much the same thing when
|
|
building one of the 1.5.2bx releases. I figured the odds of somebody else
|
|
skipping over the first paragraph of the PC readme too were so slim that it
|
|
wasn't worth reporting. The problem may be that an experienced Windows-head
|
|
decides to start partying the instant they see the PC\vc40.mak file (which,
|
|
I believe, tries to do all the obsolete stuff Barry reported)!
