I discussed with Martin a bit about the opportunity of generating .vcproj files with a script-driven tool. I'm going to try and setup something as soon as I find some spare time. The goal of this work would exactly fit your need: make the creation of extension modules trivially easy (just as easy as adding the modules to the main python.dll). My personal goal, in fact, is to move many of those builtin extension modules from python.dll out into their own .pyd files where they'd belong (were not for this technical annoyance of being forced to use the settings dialog in MSVC). -- Giovanni Bajo _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
