What do you mean by recompiling ? Using Mingw ? Normally, if you just recompile your extensions without using special distutils options, you use the same compiler as the one used by python, which generally avoids mixing runtimes. In other words, the problem mainly arises when you need to integrate libraries which you can not recompile with the compiler used by python, because the code is not visual-studio compatible, or because the library is only available in binary form. cheers, David _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
