[Python-Dev] Issue13210 : Support Visual Studio 2010 (original) (raw)

Does anyone object if I submit my patches sxs.patch and errnomodule.patch?

These allow python to work correctly when built with vs2010.

Please see my review: "allow to work correctly" is not a good explanation of what it does, and why it does that. As it is highly counter-intuitive, it needs at least justification. I'm trying to investigate whether it is actually correct (and that it works for CCP is not sufficient proof that it is correct).

Also, please clarify what branches you would apply this to. 3.3 is certainly fine; for any other branches, I'd like to point out that this is not a bug fix.

There is also the PCBuild10.patch, but that can wait.

Indeed, it shouldn't be added at all. Instead, the PCbuild tree should become a VS2010 (or VS2012) tree ultimately.

Regards, Martin
