In fact, "winnt.h" cannot be found in any file of the Python source code. PC/python_nt.rc includes PC/python_ver_rc.h which contains 3 includes: * #include "winver.h" => Windows SDK header file * #include "modsupport.h" => Include/modsupport.h => it includes #include <stdarg.h> * #include "patchlevel.h" => Include/patchlevel.h I'm not sure why modsupport.h is included. -- I found one page mentioning RC2188 *and* RC1116 error codes together: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/7ba8eb72-12e9-4c78-af68-7f50c170040f/warning-rc4011-and-error-rc2188?forum=vclanguage "RCxxxx errors are generated by the resource compiler. One of your .rc files includes directly or indirectly headers that RC can't understand so you'll have to check that and remove the #includes." ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45220> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
