New submission from Oleg Iarygin <o...@arhadthedev.net>:
According to PCbuild/readme.txt: > Using this directory requires an installation of > Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 (MSVC 14.1) of any edition. However, Doc/using/windows.rst states that Visual Studio 2017 is not required and 2015 may be used instead: > The source tree contains a build solution and project files for Microsoft > Visual Studio 2015, which is the compiler used to build the official Python > releases. VS 2017 mention was introduced in GH-3418. So either PCbuild readme needs to relax its requirements back or windows.rst needs to be updated. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Build, Documentation messages: 406826 nosy: arhadthedev, docs@python, steve.dower priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Inconsistency in minimal supported version of Microsoft Visual Studio type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.11, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45877> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
