New submission from STINNER Victor: In the C code of Python 3.5, there are still preprocessor commands checking for defines:
- __BORLANDC__: Borland C compiler - __WATCOMC__: Watcom C compiler - __DJGPP__: MS-DOS port of GCC In 2014, it's time to drop this old code. OS/2 support was already removed in Python 3.4 (see the PEP 11). I'm quite sure that Python 3.5 cannot be compiled on MS-DOS and/or will not work on MS-DOS. I don't think that anyone tried Python 3 on MS-DOS. The MS-DOS support was simply inherited from Python 2, Python 3 source code is based on Python 2. I don't want to drop support of custom compilers, only removing code specific to MS-DOS, see: http://bugs.python.org/issue22579#msg228908 ---------- messages: 228913 nosy: haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Drop support of MS-DOS versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22591> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
