[Distutils] RE: [wxPython] wxPython & Cygwin

[Norman Vine]

Hi All,

I have gotten the majority of wxPython 2.2.5 to run with 
Cygwin 1.1.8 :-))

This required a fair bit of 'coercion' to the distutils
cygcompiler.py module,   I used the wxPython  
my_distutils.py as a reference,  I also had to add an 
additional section in setup.py for the cygwin compiler

I will be glad to supply the specifics to anyone interested.

FYI
I overcame the 'resource file not found" problem I mentioned
in my earlier post by linking the wxWindows resource file into
the python executable.  

IMO this is not really satisfactory but seems to work.

Cheers

Norman Vine
