To make sure, try to build Win32 Pygr against Python 2.3 using VS 2003 - Python should tell in its error message what version you need. By the way, I've been searching on the Web for information about building Python extensions under Windows with MinGW and it really seems our problem with this is an exception rather than the rule... Maybe it's a problem with Pyrex and not MinGW? Either way, we'd better try debugging this issue a bit more and bring it up with developers of one or both of the two. > - can I have both 2.3 and 2.5 installed on the same Windows box and > be able to switch between compiling with one versus the other by > simply invoking python2.3 vs. python2.5 for the setup.py build? IIRC, under Win32 the Python executable is always called python.exe but different versions are installed in different directories - thus making overriding PATH probably the easiest way of switching between versions. That said, maybe Istvan knows a better way. -- MS --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pygr-dev" group.
