Re: Compiler for external modules for python
VS2003 : http://vecchio56.free.fr/VCToolkitSetup.exe Hello: I have interesting external modules that I want to incorporate to python 2.4.3 and python 2.5b2 also. Some of them requires C/C++ compiler. I work with Win XP Sp2 and have installed VC2005 express (I do not know if the compiler is the one with optimizing characterisitics), when trying to install some module using distutils program, it asks for C/C++ VC7 that is part of VS2003, it seems distutils is not configured for VC8 that is part of VC2005. Under this circumstances I tried to find the VC7 compiler from microsoft sites, however it deflect to the new version of VS2005, so I lost the cord and the goat . I do not know what to do. Does anybody has some guidelines about this matter? Thanks!!! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

As Microsoft has stopped shipping VS 2003, you could try to get a copy on ebay. Alternatively, you can use GNU MingW to build Python extensions.
