Windows compile Zope 2.8?
Hi List, I notice that the latest Zope does not have a Windows binary release yet (zope 2.80 alpha 2). I found an old Visual C 6.0 (still in the box!) and wonder if there are instructions somewhere that I can follow to create my own binary on Windows XP? Thanks, David ps - Maybe I'm having a bad "goggling day" but couldnt find something useful. I did see that Visual C is used often for this.

Tres, Thanks for responding. I tried the suggestion: C:\Zope-2.8.0a2> python.exe setup.py build_ext --inplace and the thing runs for a while (good sign, as visual c 6.0 is compiling things) then I get this: building 'Products.PluginIndexes.TextIndex.Splitter.ISO_8859_1_Splitter.ISO_8859_1_Splitter' extension creating build\temp.win32-2.3\Release\Products\PluginIndexes\TextIndex\Splitter\ISO_8859_1_Splitter creating build\temp.win32-2.3\Release\Products\PluginIndexes\TextIndex\Splitter\ISO_8859_1_Splitter\src C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\BIN\cl.exe /c /nologo /Ox /MD /W3 /GX /DNDEBUG -IC:\python23\include -IC:\python23\PC /TcProducts/PluginIndexes/TextIndex/Splitter/ISO_8859_1_Splitter/src/ISO_8859_1_Splitter.c /Fobuild\temp.win 32-2.3\Release\Products/PluginIndexes/TextIndex/Splitter/ISO_8859_1_Splitter/src /ISO_8859_1_Splitter.obj ISO_8859_1_Splitter.c fatal error C1083: Cannot open source file: 'Products/PluginIndexes/TextIndex/Splitter/ISO_8859_1_Splitter/src/ISO_8859_1_Splitter.c': No such file or directory error: command '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\BIN\cl.exe"' failed with exit status 2 When I inspect 'Products/PluginIndexes/TextIndex/Splitter/ISO_8859_1_Splitter/src I find only one file and its: ISO_8859_000064 (no extension).

From where did you obtain the Zope source code? The file it's looking for should be there.
For the heck of it, on WinXP I just downloaded Zope-2.8.0-a2.tgz from http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.0a2 then unpacked it using WinZip 9.0 SR-1. No problems: build_ext -i worked fine, and: C:\Zope-2.8.0-a2\lib\python\Products\PluginIndexes\TextIndex\Splitter\ISO_8859_1_Splitter\src>dir Volume in drive C has no label.

Tim, Wow thats great. I'll do it all over again. Thanks for the tip (i just reviewed my download using Ultimate Zip (which has been reliable in the past) and the key files are missing. Odd. David

I don't have experience with Ultimate Zip, but I do with other archive programs. ISO_8859_1_Splitter.c can be "a problem" because its full path exceeds 100 characters, and that's longer than POSIX tar allows. Various archive programs kludge around that in various ways. In Linux-land, GNU tar has its own way of doing it, and I suppose (but don't know that) GNU tar was used to build the Zope tarball. Not all archive programs understand GNU tar's hacks (or vice versa). If you can't get around it, you can download ISO_8859_1_Splitter.c directly by pointing your browser at svn.zope.org, then navigating to it under Zope/trunk/lib/python/ (etc).

This looks similar to an error I've seen on Unix when Zope is unpacked with a version of tar that only supports Unix v7 tar format and not the later POSIX extensions. <http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_chapter/tar_8.html#SEC120>
