Hi Mary, building the bootloader requires the same Visual Studio versions needed to build Python: Visual Studio 6 for Pythons older than 2.4 and Visual Studio 7.1 for Python >= 2.4. There is some work going on in branches for totally decoupling the bootloader binary from the Python dynamic library, so that the bootloader will not need to be compiled with the same compiler (and not even VS, you will be able to use MinGW for instance). But we're not there yet... To simplify testing for you, I have created a branch named "startup_crash" in the Subversion repository. I have committed there Stefan's patch and other patches of mine which fix this problem. Please try that version and please report back about it! -- Giovanni Bajo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
