Yes, debug mode does not work well if at all. I am not even sure whether this is a regression or not - I am very unfamiliar with how debugging works on the python + windows + VS combination. If you have some insight/recommendations, I would be glad to fix this (e.g. how is this supposed to work ?) - one problem is that building full python on windows with MS compilers is a PITA - or are there any pre-built debugged versions somewhere ? > 2.

I noticed the crash, thought naively it would be easy to fix, but it is actually quite nasty. I've reverted the change which introduced the crash for the time being (r6541). > Could this be related to the PyImport_Import and PyImport_ImportModule > changes made in 2.6 (bottom of > http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/2.6.html)? > I don't know - I would like to say no, but I am not quite sure, specially since the exact rules for dynamic loading of code are still not clear to me on windows, David _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
