I am needing to build python 2.5 on Windows XP x64 Windows Server 2003
sp1 Platform SDK and am not finding anything documented on the process
to use. Has anyone had any success with this? If so has anyone
documented it? The documentation that resides in pcbuild/readme.txt is
not helpful at all.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

What have you tried already? From the readme:
All you need to do is open the workspace "pcbuild.sl n" in MSVC++,
select the Debug or Release setting (using "Solution Configuration"
from the "Standard" toolbar"), and build the projects.
Did that not work for you? If not, how did it fail?

There is no IDE available with the 64 bit compiler on Windows Server
2003 Platform SDK, so that is not an option. bh**********@gm ail.com wrote:

Ahh, I see. Did you try this::
Building for Itanium
--------------------
The project files support a ReleaseItanium configuration which
creates Win64/Itanium binaries. For this to work, you need to
install the Platform SDK, in particular the 64-bit support. This
includes an Itanium compiler (future releases of the SDK likely
include an AMD64 compiler as well).
In addition, you need the Visual Studio plugin for external C
compilers, from http://sf.net/projects/vsextcomp. The plugin will
wrap cl.exe, to locate the proper target compiler, and convert
compiler options accordingly. The project files require atleast
version 0.9.
I can't tell whether vsextcomp handles your compiler or not though...

This doc has not been updated since the 64 bit compilers came out
officially. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense of what steps you
should follow to build python. I saw a link on the comp.lang.pytho n
that had the steps, but that link doesn't go anywhere now. I had to
jump through some hoops to get it to build on VC 2005 64 bit, but that
at least had an IDE to use. bh**********@gm ail.com wrote:

Well, if you figure it out, and you'd like to let others know, please
post a documentation bug report: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?grou...70&atid=105470
Sorry I wasn't more help.

I did - I built the official binaries with it.
If so has anyone
documented it? The documentation that resides in pcbuild/readme.txt is

Did you try to follow it? If so, what precisely did you fail at?

That is not true. The documentation was last updated on 2006-07-14,
which is after an AMD-64 SDK was released.

If you use vsextcomp, you also have an IDE to do the build. This
is indeed how the official AMD-64 binaries for Python 2.5 were
produced.

I guess I am a little confused on the directions for the vsextcomp. I
don't see an IDE for the vsextcomp. Do you know of any explicit
directions on how to do this build?

Can you please explicitly say what step you did and at what precise
step you failed?
0. Install VS 2003
1. Install vsextcomp
2. open VS 2003
3. open the project files in PCbuild
4. select the AMD64 target
5. run build

Hi everyone,
which compiler will Python 2.5 on Windows (Intel) be built with? I

Hi,
I am trying to get a small group of volunteers together to create
Windows binaries for any Python extension developer that needs them,
much like the package/extension builders who volunteer their time to
create Linux RPMs.
The main thing I need are people willing to test the binaries to make
sure the extension is stable. This would require installing the binary
and probably downloading the source too to get the developer's test

A tool that we use needs to be ported to Itanium. It wsa written
