Re: [Python-Dev] Python Extension Building Network
Mike, I had been working on getting my box ready to function as one of these: http://wiki.python.org/moin/BuildbotOnWindows. However, I will help out in whatever way possible. If the team feels it could be better utilized doing this, let's do it. VS2005 only fits in because I happen to own a single license :-) It seems like most people in the community do not have ready-access to one, so I figured this could be a benefit. Let me know, Mr. Joseph Armbruster Mike wrote:
Dear Ms. Armbruster,
Steve Holden thought I should contact you. We are working on developing a network of volunteers to build binary Python extensions for Windows. In a thread on c.l.py, Lundh told us that we should compile against 2.3 on up.
I have been experimenting with compiling some extensions with open source tools only, namely the MingW compiler. I also have Visual Studio 2003 to use for comparison. I guess what I'm asking is if you'd like to be a part of the network. Right now, it's just me with Holden's backing.
How does Visual Studio 2005 fit in exactly? From my research, Python 2.4/2.5 were compiled with VS2003. Is VS2005 being used for 2.6+?
Anyway, let me know what you think. You can see some of my stuff here:
