This is still messy, realistically PC/_subprocess.c should never cast pointers
to python numbers and back at all.
I don't have a 64-bit windows build environment because microsoft apparently
thinks that should cost money. Time to watch the buildbots. It builds and
passes tests on 32-bit windows.
Some functions in the msvcrt module are skipped,
and socket.ioctl is enabled only when using a more recent Platform SDK.
(and yes, there are still companies that use a 10-years old compiler)
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.
Closes issue #1631171.
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.
I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.
in pyconfig.h, NTDDI_WIN2KSP4 is not *yet* defined, but will be at some point on some modules.
Let this line even for older SDKs, they don't use it anyway.
I applied the same changes manually to VS7.1 and VC6 files; completely untested.
(Christian, don't try too hard merging this change into py3k.
It will be easier to do the same work again on the branch)
Added Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULES macro to set WINVER and NTDDI_VERSION to Windows 2000 for core modules, too
Added -d option to build.bat (same as -c Debug) and fixed warning about /build option
Updated Windows related readme.txt files
based on the VS 2008 build directory to PC/VS8.0. The script
PCbuild/vs8to9.py was added to sync changes from PCbuild to PC/VS8.0.
Kristjan, the initial creator of the PCbuild8 directory is fine with the replacement. I've moved the new version of the VS 2005 build directory next to the other legacy build directories. The new sync script is based on the work of wreck and syncs changes in the project, property and solution files.
