I am trying to compile PyQt for 64 bit. I found this link:
http://eoyilmaz.blogspot.com/2009/09/how-to-compile-pyqt4-for-windows-x64.html
Which is very helpful, however I have Visual Studio 2008 Express which
does not work for compiling 64 bit. So I downloaded Windows SDK for
Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5 - Version 6.1. This comes
with a CMD Shell that I beleive should let me build a 64 bit program.
So I am stuck on trying to compile sip. When I attempt to use the
command:
nmake
I get this:
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
copy /y sip.exe d:\Python26\sip.exe
1 file(s) copied.
cd siplib
"D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\Bin

xe" install

I have a AMD 64 bit chip and Windows XP 64 installed my version of
Python is also 64 bit. Any ideas why it is complaining about the
target machine type being 'X86' is there a flag that I can change
somewhere for the Windows SDK?
