Hi,
I successfully built the Sourceforge pyOpenSSL project with mingw32.
But I'm on a 64-bit machine and have had problems with loading the
project's DLLs at runtime (on a 32 bit machine loading the DLLs works
fine) and when I found mingw-64 on sourceforge thought I'd give it a try
and see if it helped me out on my 64 bit machine. The code will
eventually need to be deployed on 64 bit machines.
Downloaded a recent toolchain build. The instructions I used are here:
http://mingw-w64.wiki.sourceforge.net/Installation+of+binary+toolchain+packages
So I can copy the whole of the toolchain directory structure to any
directory location; add the bin directory within the toolchain to my
PATH; and at least according to the instructions above I should be good
to go.
Yeah right.
The compile quickly exits with:
L:\MyID\Python\pyOpenSSL>setup.py build_ext -Ic:\openssl\include -c
x86_64-pc-mingw32
running build_ext
error: don't know how to compile C/C++ code on platform 'nt' with
'x86_64-pc-mingw32' compiler
Looking around the web, I /believe/ x86_64-pc-mingw32 to be the correct
name to be use. However when I look under where I installed mingw64, I
find 3 bin directories:
pat$ pwd
/cygdrive/d/mingw64
pat$ find . -name bin
./bin
./mingw/bin
./x86_64-pc-mingw32/bin
pat$
I originally set the location in PATH to the first of the 3. Didn't
work. And then I tried #s 2 and 3 and they provoked exactly the same
error from the build.
