Updated readme.txt 

Added user macro for tcltk 64bit directory
Redone some changes to the ssl project. From now on the _ssl project depends on a 32bit build of Python to aid cross compiling on a 32bit OS.

All you need to do is open the workspace "pcbuild.sln" in MSVC++, select
the Debug or Release setting (using "Solution Configuration" from
the "Standard" toolbar"), and build the projects.
All you need to do is open the workspace "pcbuild.sln" in Visual Studio,
select the desired combination of configuration and platform and eventually
build the solution. Unless you are going to debug a problem in the core or
you are going to create an optimized build you want to select "Release" as
configuration.
The proper order to build subprojects:
The PCbuild9 directory is compatible with all versions of Visual Studio from
VS C++ Express Edition over the standard edition up to the professional
edition. However the express edition does support features like solution
folders or profile guided optimization (PGO). The missing bits and pieces
won't stop you from building Python.
1) pythoncore (this builds the main Python DLL and library files,
python30.{dll, lib} in Release mode)
The solution is configured to build the projects in the correct order. "Build
Solution" or F6 takes care of dependencies except for x64 builds. To make
cross compiling x64 builds on a 32bit OS possible the x64 builds require a
32bit version of Python.
2) python (this builds the main Python executable,
python.exe in Release mode)
3) the other subprojects, as desired or needed (note: you probably don't
want to build most of the other subprojects, unless you're building an
entire Python distribution from scratch, or specifically making changes
to the subsystems they implement, or are running a Python core buildbot
test slave; see SUBPROJECTS below)
note:

you're building an entire Python distribution from scratch, or

When using the Debug setting, the output files have a _d added to
their name: python30_d.dll, python_d.exe, parser_d.pyd, and so on.
The 32bit builds end up in the solution folder PCbuild9 while the x64 builds
land in the amd64 subfolder. The PGI and PGO builds for profile guided
optimization end up in their own folders, too.

Building Python Using the free MS Toolkit Compiler
--------------------------------------------------
The build process for Visual C++ can be used almost unchanged with the free MS
Toolkit Compiler. This provides a way of building Python using freely
available software.
Note that Microsoft have withdrawn the free MS Toolkit Compiler, so this can
no longer be considered a supported option. The instructions are still
correct, but you need to already have a copy of the compiler in order to use
them. Microsoft now supply Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition for free, but this
is NOT compatible with Visual C++ 7.1 (it uses a different C runtime), and so
cannot be used to build a version of Python compatible with the standard
python.org build. If you are interested in using Visual C++ 2005 Express
Edition, however, you should look at the PCBuild8 directory.
no longer be considered a supported option. Instead you can use the free
VS C++ Express Edition
Requirements
Profile Guided Optimization
---------------------------
To build Python, the following tools are required:
* The Visual C++ Toolkit Compiler
no longer available for download - see above
* A recent Platform SDK
from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=484269e2-3b89-47e3-8eb7-1f2be6d7123a
* The .NET 1.1 SDK
from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b3a2ca6-3647-4070-9f41-a333c6b9181d
[Does anyone have better URLs for the last 2 of these?]
The toolkit compiler is needed as it is an optimising compiler (the
compiler supplied with the .NET SDK is a non-optimising version). The
platform SDK is needed to provide the Windows header files and libraries
(the Windows 2003 Server SP1 edition, typical install, is known to work -
other configurations or versions are probably fine as well). The .NET 1.1
SDK is needed because it contains a version of msvcrt.dll which links to
the msvcr71.dll CRT. Note that the .NET 2.0 SDK is NOT acceptable, as it
references msvcr80.dll.
All of the above items should be installed as normal.
If you intend to build the openssl (needed for the _ssl extension) you
will need the C runtime sources installed as part of the platform SDK.
In addition, you will need Nant, available from
http://nant.sourceforge.net. The 0.85 release candidate 3 version is known
to work. This is the latest released version at the time of writing. Later
"nightly build" versions are known NOT to work - it is not clear at
present whether future released versions will work.
Setting up the environment
Start a platform SDK "build environment window" from the start menu. The
"Windows XP 32-bit retail" version is known to work.
Add the following directories to your PATH:
* The toolkit compiler directory
* The SDK "Win64" binaries directory
* The Nant directory
Add to your INCLUDE environment variable:
* The toolkit compiler INCLUDE directory
Add to your LIB environment variable:
* The toolkit compiler LIB directory
* The .NET SDK Visual Studio 2003 VC7\lib directory
The following commands should set things up as you need them:
rem Set these values according to where you installed the software
set TOOLKIT=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003
set SDK=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK
set NET=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003
set NANT=C:\Utils\Nant
set PATH=%TOOLKIT%\bin;%PATH%;%SDK%\Bin\win64;%NANT%\bin
set INCLUDE=%TOOLKIT%\include;%INCLUDE%
set LIB=%TOOLKIT%\lib;%NET%\VC7\lib;%LIB%
The "win64" directory from the SDK is added to supply executables such as
"cvtres" and "lib", which are not available elsewhere. The versions in the
"win64" directory are 32-bit programs, so they are fine to use here.
That's it. To build Python (the core only, no binary extensions which
depend on external libraries) you just need to issue the command
nant -buildfile:python.build all
from within the PCBuild directory.
Extension modules
To build those extension modules which require external libraries
(_tkinter, bz2, _bsddb, _sqlite3, _ssl) you can follow the instructions
for the Visual Studio build above, with a few minor modifications. These
instructions have only been tested using the sources in the Python
subversion repository - building from original sources should work, but
has not been tested.
For each extension module you wish to build, you should remove the
associated include line from the excludeprojects section of pc.build.
The changes required are:
_tkinter
The tix makefile (tix-8.4.0\win\makefile.vc) must be modified to
remove references to TOOLS32. The relevant lines should be changed to
read:
cc32 = cl.exe
link32 = link.exe
include32 =
The remainder of the build instructions will work as given.
bz2
No changes are needed
_bsddb
The file db.build should be copied from the Python PCBuild directory
to the directory db-4.4.20\build_win32.
The file db_static.vcproj in db-4.4.20\build_win32 should be edited to
remove the string "$(SolutionDir)" - this occurs in 2 places, only
relevant for 64-bit builds. (The edit is required as otherwise, nant
wants to read the solution file, which is not in a suitable form).
The bsddb library can then be build with the command
nant -buildfile:db.build all
run from the db-4.4.20\build_win32 directory.
_sqlite3
No changes are needed. However, in order for the tests to succeed, a
copy of sqlite3.dll must be downloaded, and placed alongside
python.exe.
_ssl
The documented build process works as written. However, it needs a
copy of the file setargv.obj, which is not supplied in the platform
SDK. However, the sources are available (in the crt source code). To
build setargv.obj, proceed as follows:
Copy setargv.c, cruntime.h and internal.h from %SDK%\src\crt to a
temporary directory.
Compile using "cl /c /I. /MD /D_CRTBLD setargv.c"
Copy the resulting setargv.obj to somewhere on your LIB environment
(%SDK%\lib is a reasonable place).
With setargv.obj in place, the standard build process should work
fine.
