The Python ssl module will always use its statically linked library. It doesn't care which dynamic libraries are loaded -- the external references it needs were already satisfied at link time. > I discussed the issue you had raised with our team, but the consensus > was to go ahead and build Python with a newer version of OpenSSL.

Right, because size_t and int are the same size in a 32-bit build. And on Linux, size_t and int are also the same size in a 64-bit build. But on Windows, in 64-bit land, size_t is 64 bits and int is 32 bits. The warnings can't be fixed without either modifying the code, or switching to a gcc compiler. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
