Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: As it stands, the patch is pointless, and can safely be rejected. We will just not have defined NTDDI_VERSION at NTDDI_VISTA for any foreseeable future, so all the Vista-specific code can be eliminated from the patch.
Python had been using dynamic checking for API "forever". In 2.5, there was a check for presence of GetFileAttributesExA; in 2.4, there was a check for CryptAcquireContextA. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11618> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
