Hi,
Python 2.7 requires VS 2008 as Microsoft provides a specific bundle https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266 Kind regards Thierry On Fri, Sep 23, 2016 at 9:05 AM +0200, "Victor Stinner" <victor.stin...@gmail.com> wrote: 2016-09-23 8:47 GMT+02:00 Benjamin Peterson : > I'm being flippant here because of the triviality of the change.

Python 3 had the same argument with 2to3: run 2to3 once, and you are done. C99 is a new thing for Python >= 3.6, but when you want to support Python 2.7 and 3.5, you are stuck at Visual Studio 2010 which is less happy with C99 than VS 2015... Hum, I don't recall if Python 2.7 requires VS 2010 or 2008? Python 2.7 doesn't seem to be mentioned in the dev guide :-/ https://docs.python.org/devguide/setup.html#windows-compiling Victor _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/tchappui%40gmail.com
