Zach Welch added the comment: The libpython27.a is an actual 32-bit version, as confirmed by running objdump -t on it. It reports the sections' file format as pe-i386 instead of pe-x86-64. I am only using it for building for the 64-bit target, so I cannot confirm its viability for 32-bit builds.
To build 64-bit Windows binaries, you need a MinGW-w64 toolchain (which is a completely separate project from the original MinGW project). The target triplet is x86_64-w64-mingw32. I cannot speak to the stability of the MinGW-w64 library interface, but I would expect it to be stable. To wit, I would be shocked if future changes required regeneration of third-party .a files. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23199> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
