I'm sorry I missed the 1.13.x-branch deadline, but I finally got around to playing with the swig-py3 branch on Windows. Downloaded the latest Python release: 3.7.4. And using swig 3.0.12. Of course I didn't reread INSTALL, so I first ran into: [[[ WARNING: "C:\research\svn\dev\swig-py3\py3c\include\py3c.h" not found Use "--with-py3c" to configure py3c location. ]]] No problem, after downloading py3c from Github, and adding --with-py3c, I can start building it. However, I ran into the following error: [[[ c:\python37\include\pytime.h(123): error C4115: 'timeval': named type definition in parentheses [C:\research\svn\dev\swig-py3\build\win32\vcnet-vcproj\libsvn_swig_py.vcxproj] ]]] (PS: before firing up the swig-py3 branch, I double-checked that I could successfully build the swig-python bindings on trunk with Python 2.7.16 and swig 3.0.12, and ran the swig-python tests successfully) -- Johan
