New submission from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <l...@lkcl.net>: this is an update of the mingw+msys port for native win32, with the aim of being both compiled and used under both wine-win32 and native-win32.
it is not a cross-compile patch. it does not require -lwine. it does not require a unix system. it does not require cygwin. (repeat the previous four sentences for both build _and_ use of the resultant python.exe). this information is specifically given and stated [so blandly] because several people have been extremely confused by what this patch achieves, due to the tools being utilised to achieve it [wine]. the patch is against svn trunk r68884. as of 2 hours ago, the following tests failed: 22 tests failed: test_cmath test_cmd_line_script test_compiler test_ctypes test_decimal test_distutils test_file test_logging test_mailbox test_math test_ntpath test_os test_parser test_posixpath test_pwd test_smtplib test_startfile test_tempfile test_transformer test_winsound test_zipfile test_zipimport_support since then, several have been corrected. test_pwd should not be being tested. several of the tests (test_tempfile) are fails due to use of native wine msvcrt (it gets better when win32 msvcrt is used). this is work-in-progress for those people interested. builds with --enable-msvcr9build are possible. incorporation of roumen's cross-compile work is ongoing. ---------- components: Build files: python-2.7a0-r68884-mingw-msys.patch keywords: patch messages: 80481 nosy: lkcl severity: normal status: open title: native win32 and wine mingw+msys build of python2.7 type: feature request versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file12849/python-2.7a0-r68884-mingw-msys.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5046> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
