Re: [Python-Dev] VS 2010 compiler
You can use "Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4". http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8279 Thanks. Last time I tried that route, it was for 64 bit py2.7. And it required some kludging of environment variables, and registry acces I don't have permission for. But it still may be the best bet. I'll give it a try when I have a chance. And this should be in the "official" docs... -CHB On Sat, Sep 26, 2015 at 12:24 AM, Chris Barker - NOAA Federal < chris.bar...@noaa.gov> wrote: > As I understand it, the MS VS2010 compiler is required (or at least > best practice) for compiling Python extensions for the python.org > Windows builds of py 3.4 and ?[1] > > However, MS now makes it very hard (impossible?) to download VS2010 > Express ( or Community, or whatever the free as in beer version is > called). > > I realize that this is not python-dev's responsibility, but if there > is any way to either document where it can be found, or put a bit of > pressure on MS to make it available, as they have for VS2008 and > py2.7, that would be great. > > Sorry to bug this list, I didn't know where else to reach out to. > > -Chris > > [1] it's actually prefer hard to find out which compiler version is > used for which python version.

Makes no sense, but I work for almost as big a bureaucracy as MS, so I know how that goes... :-) > The best "solution" is to move to Py 3.5 asap. Really not a solution at all, I'm afraid, and there are still growing pains with compiling for it as well (see Numpy/SciPy).

This is the main motivation for moving to VS 2015 for Python 3.5. See https://docs.python.org/3.5/using/windows.html#compiling-python-on-windows (same link as [1] with the version changed) and also https://docs.python.org/3.5/whatsnew/3.5.html I realize that this is not python-dev's responsibility, but if there is any way to either document where it can be found, or put a bit of pressure on MS to make it available, as they have for VS2008 and py2.7, that would be great. I've applied that pressure already and it's not going to happen :( The best "solution" is to move to Py 3.5 asap. If you're writing an extension and are being careful, you can use a later compiler to build for 3.4 with Py_LIMITED_API set and a lot of care (did I mention you need to be careful? It's not just FILE* that will break...).

[Python-Dev] VS 2010 compiler
As I understand it, the MS VS2010 compiler is required (or at least best practice) for compiling Python extensions for the python.org Windows builds of py 3.4 and ?[1] However, MS now makes it very hard (impossible?) to download VS2010 Express ( or Community, or whatever the free as in beer version is called).
