New submission from Shun-ichi Goto <shunichi.g...@gmail.com>: I installed python 2.6.3 on windows from .msi installer and get problem to build ext modules with MinGW compiler.
It seems that Python 2.6.3 does not use compiler specified by user via --compiler=xxx or setup.cfg on building ext module. Thus, MSVC compiler is always used or show unreasonable error message "error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat" although specifying --compiler=mingw32. I found the change of r72594 cause this issue. [projects] Diff of /python/branches/release26-maint/Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/release26-maint/Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py?view=diff&r1=72593&r2=72594 And following patch get the behaviour like before, but I don't see why this change is introduced (merged from trunk). {{{ diff -r 5874f642b473 distutils/command/build_ext.py --- a/distutils/command/build_ext.py Tue Oct 06 10:39:34 2009 +0900 +++ b/distutils/command/build_ext.py Tue Oct 06 10:43:14 2009 +0900 @@ -303,7 +303,7 @@ # Setup the CCompiler object that we'll use to do all the # compiling and linking - self.compiler = new_compiler(compiler=None, + self.compiler = new_compiler(compiler=self.compiler, verbose=self.verbose, dry_run=self.dry_run, force=self.force) }}} Is there any changes the way to specifying compiler? ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils messages: 93630 nosy: gotoh, tarek severity: normal status: open title: 2.6.3 does not use specified compiler versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7068> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
