1 """distutils.cygwinccompiler
3 Provides the CygwinCCompiler class, a subclass of UnixCCompiler that
4 handles the Cygwin port of the GNU C compiler to Windows. It also contains
5 the Mingw32CCompiler class which handles the mingw32 port of GCC (same as
6 cygwin in no-cygwin mode).
11 # * if you use a msvc compiled python version (1.5.2)
12 # 1. you have to insert a __GNUC__ section in its config.h
13 # 2. you have to generate a import library for its dll
14 # - create a def-file for python??.dll
15 # - create a import library using
16 # dlltool --dllname python15.dll --def python15.def \
17 # --output-lib libpython15.a
19 # see also http://starship.python.net/crew/kernr/mingw32/Notes.html
21 # * We put export_symbols in a def-file, and don't use
22 # --export-all-symbols because it doesn't worked reliable in some
23 # tested configurations. And because other windows compilers also
24 # need their symbols specified this no serious problem.
26 # tested configurations:
28 # * cygwin gcc 2.91.57/ld 2.9.4/dllwrap 0.2.4 works
29 # (after patching python's config.h and for C++ some other include files)
30 # see also http://starship.python.net/crew/kernr/mingw32/Notes.html
31 # * mingw32 gcc 2.95.2/ld 2.9.4/dllwrap 0.2.4 works
32 # (ld doesn't support -shared, so we use dllwrap)
33 # * cygwin gcc 2.95.2/ld 2.10.90/dllwrap 2.10.90 works now
34 # - its dllwrap doesn't work, there is a bug in binutils 2.10.90
35 # see also http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-06/msg01274.html
36 # - using gcc -mdll instead dllwrap doesn't work without -static because
37 # it tries to link against dlls instead their import libraries. (If
38 # it finds the dll first.)
39 # By specifying -static we force ld to link against the import libraries,
40 # this is windows standard and there are normally not the necessary symbols
42 # *** only the version of June 2000 shows these problems
44 # created 2000/05/05, Rene Liebscher
