It's been a while since I set this up, so I'm hazy on some of the details.
Pypy builds on windows may look for dependencies in other locations but the
way I had recommended to me and which worked was parallel to the pypy
checkout. For example I have:
c:\work\pypy
|
|- bzip2-1.0.5
|- expat-2.0.1
|- gc-7.1
|- openssl-0.9.8q
|-pypy ( this is the pypy working tree )
|-zlib-1.2.3
It has been a while since I tried so the exact versions may be incorrect.
The other thing that I had trouble with was the version of the Visual C++
compiler. You need to use the same version that was used to compile the
python interpreter you use to do the translation. For python 2.6 and 2.7
this is visual C++ 2008 which is difficult to obtain. You can get the
express version (which worked for me) here:
http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2008-editions/express
Good luck and try asking on freenode in #pypy, the one or two windows guys
are helpful when they are around.
