The C implementation of the PEP 397-compatible Python Launcher for Windows has come along nicely in the last few days, and now reached a point where it would benefit from some testing by interested python-dev members.
I've gotten the sources from:
GUILauncher and CLILauncher refuse to build with Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition (using Launchers.sln): .\CLILauncher.rc(97) : error RC2135 : file not found: C:\Users\Vinay\Projects\Launchers\launcher.ico This is on Windows XP Pro, 32 bit. There are a few compilation warnings as well: .\launcher.c(59) : warning C4996: '_wgetenv': This function or variable may be unsafe. Consider using _wdupenv_s instead. To disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details. Associator builds (with the same warning displayed above). When checking it's dependencies, I see it depends on MSVCR90.DLL. You've mentioned that you use only "plain C and Win32 APIs"; would it be possible to remove this dependency? That would make it possible to copy the executable to a directory on the PATH, without having to worry about installing the C(++) runtime. Regards, Gertjan.
