Today I was trying to compile a module using an extension in C andnoticed there are differences between compiling it on Python 2.5 and 2.6.I was trying to compile psutil (svn checkouthttp://psutil.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ psutil) but I think that theproblem may occur with any other package using C extensions.Python 2.5:D:\pyftpdlib\svn\psutil\trunk>C:\python25\python.exe setup.py installrunning installrunning buildrunning build_exterror: Python was built with Visual Studio 2003;extensions must be built with a compiler than can generate compatiblebinaries.Visual Studio 2003 was not found on this system. If you have Cygwininstalled,you can try compiling with MingW32, by passing "-c mingw32" to setup.py.Python 2.6:D:\pyftpdlib\svn\psutil\trunk>C:\python26\python.exe setup.py installrunning installrunning buildrunning build_extbuilding 'psutil/_psutil_mswindows' extensionerror: None | |||

What is the specific error you are reporting? | |||

Currently I haven't any C compiler installed on my system so I expectdistutils to report that every time I try to compile a C module extension.Python 2.5 did that while Python 2.6 does not. | |||

The problem has two causes:- IOError is raised when no compiler is found. DistutilsPlatformErrorshould be used instead, this was fixed by#4702.- the distutils.util.grok_environment_error function transforms aIOError("Unable to find vcvarsall.bat") into "error: None".This function should not be used IMO. Its docstring claims that it"Handles Python 1.5.1 and 1.5.2 styles", but str() does a better job...Patch attached. | |||

Tarek: This patch seems reasonable to me, is this something that can be applied? | |||
| msg101390 -(view) | Author: Tarek Ziadé (tarek)* | Date: 2010-03-20 19:51 | |
I guess i can be applied on distutils, and backported in distutils2. I'll do it in the coming days.Notice that I am now applying only bug fixes and regression fixes now for distutils. | |||

I will commit this if Tarek does not do it shortly.In distutils2, I’ll remove grok_environment_error wholly, since it exists for 1.5 compat only. | |||

Giampaolo, can you test Amaury’s patch? I’d prefer some testing before committing. | |||

I don't have the same setup I had at the time when I submitted the first message so maybe something has changed in meantime.Below is what I get on Windows 2000 SP-3, no VS installed, python 2.7, before and after the patch.C:\Documents and Settings\foo\Desktop\psutil>setup.py buildrunning buildrunning build_pycopying psutil\compat.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilcopying psutil\error.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilcopying psutil\_psbsd.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilcopying psutil\_pslinux.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilcopying psutil\_psmswindows.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilcopying psutil\_psosx.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilcopying psutil\_psposix.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilcopying psutil\__init__.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\psutilrunning build_extbuilding '_psutil_mswindows' extensionerror: Unable to find vcvarsall.batAlthough the message is improved ("Unable to find vcvarsall.bat" vs "None") it seems the patch had no effect. | |||

Any chance of getting this patch applied? It clearly makes the error message more useful, and we've run into another case where grok_environment_error gives the wrong result: when symlinking fails because the target exists, it now says "File exists: <source>", because e.filename is the source and e.filename2 the target.It's also rather embarassing that a function in Python 3.4 still says "Handles Python 1.5.1 and 1.5.2 styles..." in the docstring. | |||

I want to make time for Python bugs again, so I’ll try and finish this bug soon.See alsomsg200785 for a report from setuptools with an easy to reuse test case. | |||
