@Mark I don't quite understand what you're saying. Distutils supports it,
provided you add a line to distutils.cfg. I've been using the PythonXY versions
of Python with MinGW (everything before 2.7.9.0) to happily compile for nearly
4 years now.
Regarding your earlier suggestion about distutils and Visual C++ for Python, I
hacked something together to do it dynamically in the script using distutils.
Very ugly :-)
import platform
if platform.system() == 'Windows':
vcpath = os.environ['ProgramFiles']
vcpath = os.path.join(vcpath, 'Common Files', 'Microsoft',
'Visual C++ for Python', '9.0', 'vcvarsall.bat')
if os.path.isfile(vcpath):
import distutils.msvc9compiler
old_find = distutils.msvc9compiler.find_vcvarsall
def new_find(version):
path = old_find(version)
if path is None:
return vcpath
distutils.msvc9compiler.find_vcvarsall = new_find
