Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: - Embedding Python by just compiling/linking all the .c files in seems to be a major feature to me; so fixing compilation is useful for its own If that's the objective of the patch, I'm -1 on it. - The win32 build system has never used

Johann Hanne pyt...@jf.hanne.name added the comment: Traditionally, MingW-compiled Python binaries would often be binary-incompatible I don't plan to distribute a MinGW compiled package as an alternative to the official MSVC based build. In my particular use case, I compile everything into a

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc amaur...@gmail.com added the comment: Thanks for the explanations! These instructions should be turned into a patch. Some questions already: - Why is the generated pyconfig.h not good enough? Could we modify the ./configure script instead? - the empty.c should remain

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: As for the reproducibility issue: The configure/Makefile system coming with Python simply doesn't support creating a Windows build. I hope it's clear that the patch is NOT about creating a Windows installer. If this is a requirement for

Johann Hanne pyt...@jf.hanne.name added the comment: - Why is the generated pyconfig.h not good enough? Could we modify the ./configure script instead? Probably setup.py needs to be extended; I did not have a deep look into the build system though - the empty.c should remain empty... Why not

Johann Hanne pyt...@jf.hanne.name added the comment: However, if the patch doesn't manage to make configure;make work, it's IMO useless. No, it's not, for two reasons: - Embedding Python by just compiling/linking all the .c files in seems to be a major feature to me; so fixing compilation is

Johann Hanne pyt...@jf.hanne.name added the comment: Two corrections for the configure;make workaround: - WRONG: Remove the created pyconfig.h and replace PC/pyconfig.h with the manually modified version I'm attaching - CORRECT: Remove PC/pyconfig.h and replace the created pyconfig.h with the

Johann Hanne pyt...@jf.hanne.name added the comment: When the patch is applied, what's the resulting status of mingw compilation? It compiles all C files which I require. Not sure if this is really *all* C files, but at least very close to all. I will post a list of object files I get on

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: After all, the Win32 platform is not that uncommon. I know, MinGW could be seen as a different platform, but I never encountered a situation where I required anything but the exe file (no special MinGW DLL or something like that).

[issue10615] Trivial mingw compile fixes

New submission from Johann Hanne pyt...@jf.hanne.name: Some C files fail to compile with mingw, mostly due to missing preprocessor statements: - Modules/_ctypes/callproc.c When using the bundled non-msvc libffi, ffi_call has no return value, so only use it when compiled with msvc. -
