Looks like atlbase.h is needed in win32netuse and win32netuser. That's annoying, as it's not freely available, as far as I know. It's possible taht ATL isn't actually needed, though - commenting the includes out results in a successful compile. The link fails with an odd error, though - Creating library build\temp.win32-2.5\Release\win32/src/win32net\win32net.lib and object build\temp.win32-2.5\Release\win32/src/win32net\win32net.exp win32netmodule.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol [EMAIL PROTECTED] referenced in function "int __cdecl PyObject_AsNET_STRUCT(struct _object *,struct PyNET_STRUCT *,unsigned char * *)" (?PyObject_AsNET_STRUCT@@YAHPAU_object@@PAUPyNET_STRUCT@@[EMAIL PROTECTED]) win32netmodule.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol [EMAIL PROTECTED] referenced in function "int __cdecl PyObject_AsNET_STRUCT(struct _object *, struct PyNET_STRUCT *,unsigned char * *)" (?PyObject_AsNET_STRUCT@@YAHPAU_object@@PAUPyNET_STRUCT@@[EMAIL PROTECTED]) build\lib.win32-2.5\win32\win32net.pyd : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals I'm not sure how this could be related to the ATL include - it looks more like a declaration missing an "extern C" - but that seems improbable. If I comment out win32net from setup.py, I hit a problem in win32wnet\PyNetresource.cpp, which uses ATL for Unicode conversion macros. I took out axdebug, as it's described as "a mess", so let's leave that for now :-) But that uses ATL, as well... mapiutil also failed with ATL dependencies. But then I hit win32ui, which I'd forgotten about completely - that uses MFC, doesn't it, so presumably there's no serious hope of getting it working without the full Visual C product. At this point I gave up. I was impressed by how far things got with just the free stuff, but the lack of MFC and ATL is probably a complete showstopper. Anyway, I'm posting this, not so much in the hope that it's possible, as to have it in the archives for future reference. It was an interesting exercise, in any case :-) Paul. _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
