Ok, I didn't read the full section. But we should show the readme link in bold or maybe in a "seealso" section. Right now, it's easy to miss this important link. > Quick Start Guide > ----------------- > > 1. Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2015, any edition. > 2. Install Subversion, and make sure 'svn.exe' is on your PATH. > 3. Run "build.bat -e" to build Python in 32-bit Release configuration. Oh wow, it's much simpler that my procedure :-) It worked for me, in a few minutes I got a working "import ssl". Thanks. I'm now able to test my asyncio patch on Windows ;-) http://bugs.python.org/issue22560 (With this patch, it will be possible to use SSL with the proactor (IOCP) event loop which is more efficient and supports more defaults than the default selector event loop.) Note: build.bat is in the PCbuild directory, and the command doesn't need to be executed in the Visual Studio/Windows SDK shell. It works in the classical cmd.exe shell.
