I wonder if anyone can advise me or has done similar to the following?
Basically I've downloaded the Python 2.5.2 source code that builds
with Visual Studio 6.0. I've built Python for windows. This was easy
(it even came with the pcbuild.dsw workspace file). Great!
Now comes the troubled bit...I now look for similar source code for
Python extensions Numpy and Scipy but the source code and directories
are not all obvious. Looks like these are normally built via other
compilers. However I need to do all my builds in VS 6.0.
For Numpy (I haven't got as far as Scipy yet) I've organised the
source code into the following projects and lumped them all into my
new workspace numpy.dsw:
Don't try to roll your own projects, compile it using distutils instead. *
Distutils takes care of defining the right symbols and compiler options, *
and should detect VS.
I'm pretty sure the Numpy README file (or similar) describes how to build*
it; usually you install the required dependencies and then run:
python setup.py build

Thanks for your message.
Unfortunately I need as much control and visibility as possible as I
eventually want to port from windows os to pharlap rtos.
I appreciate your advice and I understand it's not a great idea to
roll your own, but if it's possible, I really need to do so.
Any further help/advice greatly appreciated
