I want to - Build PIL (python imaging library) in Debug mode (win64, AMD64)
I built python2.5.1 using visual studios (for win64, AMD64) (python_d.exe, etc). For other extension modules, such as ctypes, I just ran "python_d.exe setup.py", and setup.py automatically chose to build ctypes_d.pyd (in debug mode). But for PIL, I ran "python_d.exe setup.py", and it still tries to build _imgaging.pyd (not _imaging_d.pyd - debug). It looks for python25.lib (instead of python25_d.lib). How can I tell PIL to build me a python debug extension (using my custom build of python2.5.1 debug python_d.exe) instead of a python release extension? Thanks ----------- 4) build Python Imaging Library (for "import PIL") * our source has unmodified zlib123 (zlib 1.2.3) (from http://www.zlib.net/) source (for zip / png support) * our source has unmodified ijg jpeg library (for jpeg support) (from http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz) a) Edit setup.py: # see http://docs.python.org/dist/module-distutils.msvccompiler.html os.environ['DISTUTILS_USE_SDK'] = "1" os.environ['MSSdk'] = "1" # see http://www.wiredfool.com/2005/10/29/how-to-build-the-python-imaging-libr ary-for-windows/ FREETYPE_ROOT = None JPEG_ROOT = "jpeg-6b" TIFF_ROOT = None ZLIB_ROOT = "zlib-1.2.3" TCL_ROOT = None # ignore tkinter support since it wasn't working and I just want png support # this step was not necessary for my build, but may be for some scenarios #import _tkinter import _tkinter_I_am_not_really_Importing_it b) open "Visual Studio 2005 x64 Win64 Command Prompt" c) build jpeg dependency: cd Imaging-1.1.6\jpeg-6b copy jconfig.vc jconfig.h nmake /f makefile.vc d) build zlib dependency cd Imaging-1.1.6\zlib-1.2.3 nmake /f win32/Makefile.msc e) build PIL cd Imaging-1.1.6\ ..\Build_Win64\python.exe setup.py build TODO: - paths??? Again, getting setup.py to build was messy b/c I wasn't sure how to tell setup.py where to look for the missing files (python .h files and python25.lib), so I copied them to local folders in the PIL build - to hack the build to work * copied headers (Python-2.5.1\Include\*.h) (Python-2.5.1\PC\pyconfig.h) to (Imaging1.1.6\libImaging) * copied python25.lib to Imaging1.1.6\ _______________________________________________ Image-SIG maillist - Image-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
