Hi Jason,
To get "import socket" to work in Python2.4, I had to do something
that I never recomend and that is hack the Python code. Since I need
this to work for someone that is going on travel, I just modified the
socketmodule.c file.
REPLACE:
/* Irix 6.5 fails to define this variable at all. This is needed
for both GCC and SGI's compiler. I'd say that the SGI headers
are just busted. */
#if defined(__sgi) && !defined(INET_ADDRSTRLEN)
#define INET_ADDRSTRLEN 16
#endif
WITH:
#define INET_ADDRSTRLEN 16
This is a temporary fix until the Cygwin build works.
Best regards,
Dean
