STINNER Victor added the comment: So, I made final tests with the merged commit. I manually uninstalled (Active)Perl. Without the commit, the compilation of ssl failed on my Windows VM since I'm using VS 2008.
(1) using build.bat git clean -fdx In the VS2008 shell, type: PC\VS9.0\build.bat -e -d -p x64 => you get a python_d.exe with a working _ssl module! (2) using VS GUI git clean -fdx PCbuild\get_externals.bat Open VS 2008, build the project => compilation of _ssl fails with a permission error about a temporay object file... I don't understand it Rebuild the project => compilation of _ssl works, python_d.exe has a working _ssl module! Except of the "temporary" (but reproductible) compilation error in the VS GUI, I confirm that the change fixes this issue! I prefer to keep the issue open until the buildbot is repaired (expat issue). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30368> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
