New submission from Karthik Rajagopalan: Hi,
We see following compiler error when 'Python2.5.1' is compiled under VC.NET 2002 ( 7.0.9466 ). This happens in 'pythoncore' project: <ERROR> ------ Build started: Project: pythoncore, Configuration: Release Win32 ------ Compiling... zutil.c .... .... sha512module.c \python-build\Python-2.5.1\Modules\sha512module.c(146) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number' \python-build\Python-2.5.1\Modules\sha512module.c(146) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identifier 'L' \python-build\Python-2.5.1\Modules\sha512module.c(146) : error C2144: syntax error : '<Unknown>' should be preceded by '<Unknown>' \python-build\Python-2.5.1\Modules\sha512module.c(146) : error C2144: syntax error : '<Unknown>' should be preceded by '<Unknown>' \python-build\Python-2.5.1\Modules\sha512module.c(146) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before 'identifier' \python-build\Python-2.5.1\Modules\sha512module.c(146) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number' </ERROR> The fix for the above problem is given below where _MSC_VER is increased more than 1300 that has LL and ULL literal suffix. VC.NET2002 is a C89 compiler and it doesn't have LL and ULL support. /* VC 7.1 has them and VC 6.0 does not. VC 6.0 has a version number of 1200. Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 has a version number of 1201 and doesn't define these. If some compiler does not provide them, modify the #if appropriately. */ #if defined(_MSC_VER) #if _MSC_VER > 1300 #define HAVE_UINTPTR_T 1 #define HAVE_INTPTR_T 1 #else /* VC6 & eVC4 don't support the C99 LL suffix for 64-bit integer literals */ #define Py_LL(x) x##I64 #define Py_ULL(x) Py_LL(x##U) #endif /* _MSC_VER > 1300 */ #endif /* _MSC_VER */ #endif Please let me know your comments and if the fix looks rights, please incorporate in your future release. -Karthik Rajagopalan D.E.Shaw India Software Pvt Ltd ---------- messages: 56176 nosy: kartlee severity: normal status: open title: Python2.5.1 fails to compile under VC.NET2002 ( 7.0 ) type: compile error versions: Python 2.5 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1216> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
