Looks like MSVCCompiler hasn't been fixed yet to support AMD64 architectures. 
__root is referenced by get_msvc_paths but wasn't set in __init__.
 
Known bug ?
 
My current settings:
 
self.__product -> Microsoft SDK compiler 14.0
self.__version -> 8.0
self.__arch -> AMD64
 
class MSVCCompiler (CCompiler) :
...
    def __init__ (self, verbose=0, dry_run=0, force=0):
        CCompiler.__init__ (self, verbose, dry_run, force)
        self.__version = get_build_version()
        self.__arch = get_build_architecture()
        if self.__arch == "Intel":
            # x86
            if self.__version >= 7:
                self.__root = r"Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio"
                self.__macros = MacroExpander(self.__version)
            else:
                self.__root = r"Software\Microsoft\Devstudio"
            self.__product = "Visual Studio version %s" % self.__version
        else:
            # Win64. Assume this was built with the platform SDK
            self.__product = "Microsoft SDK compiler %s" % (self.__version + 6)

    def get_msvc_paths(self, path, platform='x86'):
        """Get a list of devstudio directories (include, lib or path).
 
        Return a list of strings.  The list will be empty if unable to
        access the registry or appropriate registry keys not found.
        """
 
        if not _can_read_reg:
            return []
 
        path = path + " dirs"
        if self.__version >= 7:
            key = (r"%s\%0.1f\VC\VC_OBJECTS_PLATFORM_INFO\Win32\Directories"
                   % (self.__root, self.__version))                   << line 
616

Subject: [python-win32] Building pywin32 on Vista 64


Hello,
 
I'm trying to build pywin32 (2.5.210.0) on Vista 64 (AMD64) with VS 2005.
 
I'm stucked right at the beginning of the process with this error :
 
File "C:\Python25\lib\distutils\msvccompiler.py", line 616, in get_msvc_paths % 
(self.__root, self.__version))
AttributeError: my_compiler instance has no attribute '_MSVCCompiler__root'
 
I did install the windows server 2003 platform SDK (AMD64) and set both 
DISTUTILS_USE_SDK +  MSSdk as advertised. Still no succcess.
 
Any ideas what could go wrong ? 
 
Thank you
